we all fear
becoming
what we fear
~
vulnerable
~
trust
our ignorance
in love
~
be still
keep dancing
life will not always
make sense
~
learn to love
our contradictions
we’re nothing
we’re everything
~
find comfort
in doubt
sometimes
it’s the only light
we’ll ever have

I know I’m supposed to trust
it’s the only path to love
but I don’t want to let you past
the guards that protect me
~
I will give it all to you
Give It All To You
thanks kirrily
for sharing
such heartfelt advice
Love this – as you know, I’m dancing with my own fears at the moment :) and this is a beautiful piece of wisdom for that path! :)
the song link
{I will give it all to you}
was a wonderful catalyst
for creating
my poem
I can see why – just went and listned to the song..it is very beautiful..melody, lyrics and gorgeous singing voice too. :)
yes
a very talented friend
from a long time ago
Brilliant. Especially love all of the ironies, contrasts….they end up making circles, or actually spirals-so magical. If sometimes infuriating, or at least resistant to logic and illusory control. Especially especially love “be still/ keep dancing….” as I often find the most profound experience of stillness I dance. Shine on…..
thank you
for your supportive comment
~
I’ve learned to accept
embrace
the brilliant spontaneity
in life
beyond my comfort zones
~
I guess
being a parent
will do that for you
B/relief.
Relievo rilievo.
Beautiful Geo…the love in family steered me to my internal compass…
a far more accurate gauge than any other source could show me.
very inspirational!
This is wonderful!:)

Keep dancing…words so meaningful. AJM
very well expressed
I’m often
more perplexed

than properly
expressed
the more you express the more perplexed it is bound to get until unless the truth unfolds itself I feel.
Love hearing you read your powerful work. Thank you.
Uncertainty is the only certainty.. I love hearing your voice and sentiments expressed. Had to listen a couple times.
The wonderful nuances in your voice, Geo, give great substance to your words. Bravo, my friend!

Wonderful again.
thanks

again
A beautiful reminder; thank you.
Fear what we don’t one to become is not an easy walk through about life, taking comfort in doubt in my life, seems to be a very thin thread….
However, don’t given that easy, would like to change the rules once and awhile..
I’m slowly
trying to understand
and
accept
life’s impermanence

facing my mortality
and
complete lack of control

uncertainty
is
my
only
constant
god Damn, that’s good!
Beautiful read and a very intelligent use of words :)
thanks

I’m learning to trust
