“when i need a reminder that all of this is sacred, i sit under the night sky and watch stars dance, i listen to birds sing or children’s laughter, i enjoy a cool breeze on a sunny day, and get lost in the eyes of those whom i love.
we are all friends here, interdependent, floating along in the same river which opens into a deep blue sea of vast, spacious Love…”
thoughts on fidelity…
by jaysen waller
…it seems to me, that if you are fortunate enough in this life to have even one person hand you their heart, allowing that vulnerability and choosing you and you in turn have accepted this gift, this offering, then hold it with the utmost care. with awareness, honor this heart laid bare. be of good character, acting with integrity and honesty. and when the relationship has found its conclusion, end it with tenderness and grace as you found it, before moving forward with another. such wounding can be so harmful and trust is incredibly difficult to regain…
…but then again, what do i know? i have yet to experience such a blessing in this life. perhaps the first heart that entwines with mine will find itself run over rather quickly. but if i do such a thing, please form a line and proceed to punch me in the stomach one by one, because i’m pretty sure this is what it feels like to be cheated on…
this is my loneliness
a friend to many
a sage to some
a lover to none
this is my loneliness

the only truth we have…
all is empty
waves come and gone
suns risen and set
worlds end
even
as new ones begin
all of what i know
is that i don’t
really
know
whether the stars
are here
or
gone tomorrow
even as if they
are
gone today
and may be
in some
tomorrow
all i really see
are distant memories
and futures
yet to manifest
but i am here
in this moment
in this
breath
so
breathe with me
my love
and
let our hearts beat
this once
together in rhythm
together
in the harmony
of right now
the only truth we have

reborn in your love…
it is in your in-breath
that
i live
and
in your out-breath
that
i die
so please
keep breathing
my friend
that
i may live
and die
again
and
again
in this
your beautiful
reincarnation
moment
by
moment
i am
reborn
again
reborn
in
your love

our hearts are mirrors…
with this crested water
reflecting half moon light
nothing different, really
than my love reflecting yours
and
taking flight
our hearts are mirrors, really
to each other’s
our souls are joined
dear brother
as
sacred lovers

broken are my gifts of love…
broken
are my gifts
of
love
what
should be
grace
ends in clumsy
disgrace
my words
like wallflowers
need
a shove
and
still they
get lost
avoiding you
at great cost
yet, the letter
from my lips
is
simple, my love
you are the prayer
that echoes from my heart
for all the Universe
the hear
from below
to
above

what sadness
this morning dew brings
just a glimmer of warmth
in this early daylight
i suppose there is a choice here
and i
like the delicate grass
shall allow the remnants
of night’s dark cover
to gently wake me
from my slumber
and
nourish my naked
thirsty soul
i took a walk along the beach today,
i was alone in her beauty.
sometimes
i don’t ever see this changing,
this quiet sadness.
