Pulse of love

Listening to my inner core,
feeling what it says:
yes
yes
yes
yes
yes
yes
80 times a minute.

Why did I not listen to it before?

Ask not why

Fill the space that is you
with each breath
with each move.
Fill the heart that is you
with each moment
with each person.
Fill the head that is you
with each song
with each silence.
Fill the day that is yours
with wonder
with welcome;
and ask not why,
for that will poison.

Through the long night

We are the guardians of each other's heart,
hold it gently,
hold it softly,
keep it safe through the long night.

We are the light in each other's dark,
let it shine,
keep it clear,
hold it steady through the long night.

We are the hope in each other's longing,
make it true,
keep it straight,
hold it steady through the long night.

We are the wish in each other's dream,
can it happen,
make it happen,
give us joys through the long night.
