The Book of Love by Peter Gabriel
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nZGv8VTBVE
Fear not the cracks in humanity.
The promise of time passing
                        growing old
                        wearing down
                        wearing out
Fear not the brokeness
              the inevitable brokeness
That we find in our communal limitations
Fear not.
Have courage.
Be brave and face it.
Look closely and you'll see.
The cracks
The brokeness
          Create space
And that is where the Light comes in.

R.O.B.

Raw. Organic. Beautifully innocent.
Heart of gold.
White sun dress.
Sun down. Sun up.
Dusk to dawn.
Dawn to dusk.
Sun up.  Sun down.
White dress.
Hearts of gold.
Beautifully innocent.
Organic.
Raw.

Ideal Self

Ideal self.
I deal self.
Self I deal with
Oceans apart.
Drifting together.
What do I choose?
What is my choice?
What is my power?
Limitations vs. limitless
I choose virtues.
I choose hairstyles.
What is inherent?
And written on my DNA
       even that changes.
Changing all the time
The only thing that stays the same
Stay, please stay.
The blessing.  The goodness. The love.
Do not change.
Do not leave me with nothing but change.
I want the ____________.
And I want it to stay.
Want. Desire. Longing.
Will it go away?
Go away and make space.
Space for contentment
                joy
                gratitude
Thank You for the gratitude.
I welcome more gratitude
                 more joy
                 more contentment
                 More?  Contentment.
Ideal space for contentment.
I deal space for contentment.
Ideal self.  Contentment.
I deal Self.
Ideal Self.
