The Invitation
You are the greatest secret
kept from yourself.
It is in hiding your Light
that you become lost.
It is in resisting the moment,
when the trap between yesterday and tomorrow
catches you.
Sweet one, go to the mirror and look, really look.
The depths of all of humanity are patiently waiting to be seen.
It’s right there, just beneath the surface of
your stories, your worries, and
your lies.
You were always right there,
eagerly hoping for the door to open;
not realizing it is you who pockets the key.
The invitation is here.
Will you accept?
Will you come to the edge of your soul
and jump through your golden eyes
into right Now?
Unifying with the Beloved
while revealing the secret of You
to the world you have feared and distrusted.
Reuniting for the first time
with the warmth and love
you offer to your
dearest friend.
