Is this Waterfall Big or Small?
I used to remain small to keep others comfortable
That’s how we were used to being, relative to each other
Now
I feel nobody big
I feel nobody small either
There is a big difference…

You Talk Too Much
This is what they said to me
I didn’t know what to do about it
Until I realized after long
I was expressing wrongly
In all places wrong
I became a writer
Expressing from my heart exactly
You Don’t Talk To Me Much Now
This is what they say to me now

I realized I always used to think aloud
It was wrong I was told & felt at times
I realize now what was right about it
Over the years I have started taking responsibility for what I think!
Aligning thoughts to higher truths
The freedom it brings is amazing
For now what I think is what I say
What I say is what I think aloud
Not a care but know it very well
Thought and word of intention
Is how I contribute to Creation
That which I call my world and reality
Emerges from thought, word & beyond
As if built brick by brick
One wonder & one moment at a time
This habit of mine I think served well!

Habit is but a smile
As it is never out of style
True story is in the eyes
They don’t hold any lies
Habit is but our appearance
Worldview is it’s dependence
True story is in the grace
That harmony brings to the face
Habit is but a service
Flows without avarice
True story is in the heart
What is felt but blocked
Habit is but the noise
Seems to come with no choice
True story is in the silence
Shows you your resilience
Habit is but a desire
Sometimes no less than a fire
True story is in the meaning
The desire is really seeking
Habit is but our comfort
At any cost we ‘d import
True story is in the courage
With which reality we forage
Habit is but our human-ness
Begs for our kindness
True story is in the Soulness
That brings us closer to wholeness
Dedicated willingness to feel & seem Bright
This habit sometimes comes at a cost
Masks the disharmony, pain & the feeling of Lost
Basks us, falsely, in the glory of seeming strong
Until we find ourselves on our way to harmony
And what seems true and Light!
Willingness now has served its purpose
Revealed to you, that you are a seeker
Dedication is not a struggle anymore!
