The Body Remembers
Beautiful friend, we have imagined that
what we feel and the burden we have carried
is so unique to us.
That one, seemingly outside looking in,
has a very good view of who we think we are
and how we have believed we were supposed to be.
You have become concerned for yourself
and a part of you believes retreating
into aloneness will change this.
Sometimes that aloneness is perfect,
sometimes the heart seeks the company of
companions in form so, its little worries
get cancelled out by the laughter of one
who isn't marching to that song of isolation.
Breathe, and 'Feelisten' to what the body remembers...
Aaah...memory returns!
The new matrix of your life
unfolds through every breath.
Every moment you gaze with presence,
with nothing to conceal from that one
who already sees what you have
feared to be true about yourself
is merely the outcome of misdirected attention,
your self returns to you, to this moment.
In all I say to you, I am speaking
to that One, the Beloved in all...
I will sing it!
Let me caress away the cares of your mind
that have taken residence in your body.
Your body remembers...the resonance of Home.
