A Shadow From The East_3-

Folder: 
Folder-2004

Every shadow has a name

My shadow hidden away his

I heard rumors of his fame

One about his game

And another of his shame

When the pure awareness

In my heart spoke differently

I looked toward that noise and confusion

I saw rays of his soul shining clearly

Through the mirror of my own soul

How could I mistaken him by this human form

I stood strong on love ground

To their judgments I listen

They judge according to the norm

Neither me nor my shadow

Ever walked in that form



My shadow was a blessing

Generous and full of grace

A light within his light

Caused my soul to boil with ecstasy

Longing to hold his hidden face

To grasp his extended hands

When everyone bound to sleep

I hear my shadow at night weep

Calling my soul, calling my name

In the dreams we meet

In Oneness we melt

He always leaves to return

Leaving all the crowd

on the top of the hill behind

Holding tight to my hand

Running freely across the land

Among the green trees

Under the heavy pure rain

Spreading laughter in the space
