Ballad
You are clarity, you are joy
You are light, I am the lightness
You are my doorway, as I pass into the world of being
Friend, mentor, teacher, guide
Inspiration, aspiration, unachievable ambition
But as you merge with me
I stand at the doorway,
holding you within me,
you are also the one
I can’t see your face or feel your form
But you define existence for me
Wherever you go, whence you point
I will follow, mesmerized
You walk on, always holding out the light
Creating the universe for me to discover as I follow you
And I must run to keep up with the shifting reality that is moving with you
Because the minute you stop….too long
I will step out and away from you
And begone into the world of blinding light but no lightness
*Read my other Love Poetry. Or listen to it.
Lost to us both
Oh wow The Hermit with all his light……another chain of relatedness?
@ Ranjan: We were never apart. The dogs = other distractions like reality.
You are light, I am the lightness….
You guys have met!!?!’
Who are the three dogs in the background?
@ Another Women: Like someone else I know said…I’m an onion. 😉
well,this is a different you…it’s like sheathing one layer after another of the Ideasmithy!
Step out, and away
Drift up, and afar
Fade out, go astray
Yet the light remains
A black hole for lightness
Have a good year, Smithy..

@ Sense: I question everything.
