the tao says:-
to delight in your love
to feel the heart open
to treasure every moment
every touch
every glance
every kind word
but let it go

for all things change
everyday we are different
everyday our hearts bend in the wind
feelings ebb and flow
intimacy is not something you can cling to
for it is fragile as a bird
it needs it freedom
to sing and fly
to come and go as it pleases
trust to its nature
for it will always return
if we stay open

walk the middle path
and feel what we feel
insecurity, confusion, doubt, joy, love, peace
let them drift through
as intangible as clouds
let them slip through your fingers
and open yourself to the next moment
the next breath
the next emotion
the next now…

~

stay open
for all things are possible
if we allow the river to flow
if we do not try to control
if we have no expectation of outcome

be still
aware
open
and loving
and see what flows towards us
for as the days and nights follow in the cycle of time
that which will move towards us,
will
given time
given trust
given our ability to see when it does

be still
close your eyes
and feel the flow of all things
time, distance, memory, fate, love, grief
pass through us

we stand
never isolated in time
never isolated in space
but a single part of the whole
connected by tao
by the air we breathe
the life in our bodies
by the humanity of our souls
we are only apart
if we so choose
unity
