---Like a shadow cast out of alignment
I fell out of sequence, for a moment
Everything went Silent
Breath went tight within my chest and
Eyes started burning in my head
Then... Rhythm,
the pounding of my breath and feet
All Eyes on Me, Lights pointing and chasing
Running to find a way to Be Free of slavery
See the walls are closing in on We
The program is designed to devastate,
the thread of Hope that continues always to motivate
Pause, Breathe
Beyond Captivity, there is a Love shining
through the cracks
We All search for places of Peace
Hands and feet kicking and pushing for their Piece
Imagine when the shelters made for our Serenity
Emerge as truly the homes of our enemy's
Eating away the last beautyfull rays of Innocence
Beyond Sorrow, beyond Pain
Where do we go when there is nowhere Safe?
Reaching out to the Wind, I Ache
I am desperate, lost and forsaked
Hidden Fire rises in the language of
Thirsty and tired
How much can one Soul take?
How Silent can One remain?
Where is our support
Where is our Strength?
Listen, a bluebird sings songs to the Sun
Dandelions are growing like wild weeds long
Trees continue to Dream and to Reach
The Sun always shines Invisible Healing
Dirt everywhere, Always under my Feet
Waterfalls flow Cool, Whispering, Playing
Focusing on the Fire spark brings New clarity
Burn the Sage and bathe Smoke over everything
Remember who I used to be
Way way way before All war, All killing
One with Joy, One with Living
One with Earth, One with Giving
One with Music, One with Rhythm
One with Trees, One with Wisdom
One with Death, One with Release
One with this Holy Masterpiece
Thank you so much to 
These words really brought me into a beautiful space of Remembrance. I had a vision of the wholeness of creation, from the suffering, pain and destruction we experience individually and on Collective scale, to the Peace, Joy and absolute Empowerment that we each are capable of. My poem expresses the feelings of complete loss and hopelessness, to show how that is the exact point in time when we can turn it All around and let everything go.
The cycles circle Infinitely!
We return to Joy and Love through realizing we are One with All of it, even the parts we don't like.
We find Peace through coming into tune with the Nature of reality with humbleness, acceptance, gratitude for the Grace that is allowed us to walk this Lovely Earth.
Thank you for reading my Entry, and for this opportunity to express myself. I look forward to more challenges in the future!
May All beings have the chance to Live in Peace, Love and Harmony
