Transformation
Allowing yourself to be undone
Completely, to sit in the
Burning fires, to drown in the
Towering waters, to be buried
Deep within the earth
A complete letting
Go of everything, like
The caterpillar having to
Dissolve completely before
Emerging as
A butterfly
As you sit in the
Raging fires, only that which
No longer serves is
Burnt away and sometimes
That means
Everything, all of you
Is alight
Sometimes you have
To drown completely
Water flooding and bursting
From every cell, every space
Until you are one
With the water
And as for being
Buried, well you can
Lie dormant for ages until
One day, you push
Your way out the
Ground, beautiful,
Tender, radiant
Buried as a seed
Risen as a shoot
The vulnerability
Being completely
Undone, of allowing
Every part of your
Being to be stripped
Away, a letting go
Of the illusions, the
Stories you tell yourself, of the
Ways you have come to
Define yourself by your
Name, your status, your
Wealth, your relationships, your
Place in the world
Everything falls
Away and there you are
Exposed, naked
Unravelled, undone
And in that
Space you rest
There is no
Rush for Time does not
Exist on this plane
Time is the ribbon that
Courses through the
Interaction
Between form and
Formless, for
There can be no
Body without
Soul
So you rest, allowing
Receiving, being
One with Source
Detached from
Your body, you
Observe the
Birth of Awareness, of
Self, of I Am
The veil
Has lifted, the skies
Thinned, the illusion
No more
This is
Your Awakening
The Chance
To begin anew
Your first breath
Pulls the world
Towards you and
Everything comes
Rushing in, but this
Time round, you
Know better
The drama, chaos
And noise hold
Little appeal for you
Devoid of your attention
They simply
Fall away as
You exhale, letting go
No longer
Tethered, you are
Free, basking in the
Present moment
Awareness of
Silence, of stillness, of
Soul, you look
At your body, renewed
Replenished, reformed, the
Sacred temple that
Holds your soul
All is well
