She haunts me by Michele SchottelkorbShe blows through my dreams
the constant drone (voices) reminding
me
to drift upon ancestral shores
and bask in Her unconditional gaze
She haunts me
teaches me to dig deeper
to find the key to the door
to the place She never found
i wander, aimlessly (lost), but with veiled purpose
and fight to cure the sick legacy
the battle She could not win
and i scream into the nothing
and weep droplets of shame
and kiss clovers that are not mine
She blows through my seams
and i stir
im coming
wait for me

Posted by Ashok Sharda on 04/02/04 at 07:22 AM 'She haunts me'. Is it haunting in the real sense of the term? Do you really want to run away from this quest she is wanting you to stick to? I think she is a constant reminder of whats your goal? The goal she failed at ATTAIN.'teaches me to dig deeper
to find the key to the door
to the place She never found'. Well, if you dont mind I can give you a clue to the key which can open that door. The key is the ATTENTION and the door is just HERE. The only problem is that we are not HERE. And please know NOW just cannot be extracted from this HERE. The TRUTH is always a PATHLESS PATH.
