The Magnificent Present
Becoming whole
Centered from my source
Grounded
In knowing
That everything will
Unfold as intended
Relinquishing control
With alignment
Only my true purpose
Can transpire
With love
And honest intentions
Shared values
Through awareness
Created realisation
Of my seventh sense
Showing the perfection
Within every soul
Stilling my mind
For beauty to bloom
Spoken and felt
Love, the answer to
Every question
Ever asked
That the ego
Attempted to gag
Through fear
Scared of its demise
Forgiveness, gently
Guided it aside
Unveiling
The
Magnificent
Present
Feeding emptiness
Come in from the cold,
dark anxiety of your mind.
Feast yourself on a slice
Of escapism pie.
It’s saccharin lightness,
the antidote to unsavoury thoughts
Of what if’s,
mixed with the shoulds and
Yoghurt covered woulds.
Each sweet laden fork,
a bitter reminder,
of your skeletal soul
Obese with inadequacy.
Feeling cheap
And empty of substance.
Time chewed and swallowed.
Your mind tricked,
into feeling full
The dressing-up box of life
The dressing-up box of life
All the costumes you’ll need
Always something to suit
From a plaid to a tweed
Do not use clothes to hide
Feelings need to be aired
By always covering up
Your soul cannot be bared
Expression is honest
Does not cost you a dime
The opinions of others
Just a meaningless mime
Pull on trousers in confidence
And a T-shirt of pride
Add a poncho of humour
Wear whatever you decide
Mismatched socks of intent
Darn the hole on your heel
Uniformity not required
It just limits your zeal
Put your hands in the pockets
Of your jeans of goodwill
The shoes of expectation
They are not yours to fill
That old, well-worn jumper
With a leather patched sleeve
An old favourite unravelling
Your own unique weave
Become your own hero
Get into the game
Do not hold yourself back
Awaken your best self
And take up the slack
Clarify uncertainties
Have courage; speak your truth
False assumptions, just that
No one is bulletproof
Do not put off living
For some future event
Do not presume what will happen
Take big risks to circumvent
Seize all opportunities
Do not play small
The fear behind resistance
Stops you being your all
Live your life backwards
Where will you be at the end?
Make the choices to get there
Truly embark, don’t pretend
Betrayal and limitations
Are all your own work
Question your beliefs
This task, you cannot shirk
Let all of your talents
See the pure light of day
Become your own hero
And live life your way
Buffering your emotions
Buffering your emotions
Tightly wrapped in cottonwool
Gives the illusion of safety
Until you open the ringpull
Peer from inside your bubble
Smell the clean, honest air
You can live out your dreams
But only if you dare
No time, just the present
The gift with which you are born
It’s your timeless connection
Which can never be torn
You’re meant to succeed
It’s the reason you’re here
Let go of all outcomes
Watch your life shift a gear
With courage, trust your judgement
Let is flow through your being
Now open your eyes wide
Recalibrate what you’re seeing
