In Time's quick stream you spoke to me
We took the plunge together,
In a forest by a fire we glimpsed
Power, old without measure.
Stood on the edge,
And looking in
Saw Love's strange shadow
Framed in feathers.

You left that day we walked alone,
And journeyed far beyond.
It started with a riddle that then
became a song of hope
And hidden promised sighs.
She spoke to me
And I became
A listener free of lies.

The journey took a lifetime
Between heartbeats of birds
And floating down through unknown paths,
A storm began to churn.
A death without an answer
Was breathed upon those lips,
Took many times
A laboured step
To move closer to this:

In five ages of glory
And naked bliss it came,
Though howling all above around,
The Absolute remained.
Timeless.
An offering, inviting us:
To plant the seed
Inside the storm,
And swim up through the fray...
A grain of hope will grow up strong
When darkness tries to stay.
