Today I walk silently
Hoping for miracles
I am blinded by my mind
And my unfulfilled desires
My so-called problems
I am walking, praying for miracles
While my earthly silliness continues
I am in a dark cloud, hoping for a little sunlight
So I can see the miracle my life is
I keep walking; suddenly something shifts
It's my consciousness
The dark cloud parts just so
Allowing a little ray of hope
My heart is in prayer once again
This time it's a different prayer
It's not the kind where I ask
For all things to be correct in my life
This time I see that all is perfect
Just the way it is
I see that it's my mind that needs correcting
So I start a new prayer
Not a prayer really - more like a conversation
I don't have a destination for my words
Just reciting really
It starts with help me see
Help me see the magic my life is
Help me see beauty where I see ugliness
Help me feel you
Let me see you, let me know you
Let me know that you are always here for me
I am lifted by the light
Out of this earthly realm
Into the arms of hope
I try to return to the present
But I find inner resistance
My conversation continues
Please GOD I say
Change my heart to see your love
Change my mind to be your love
Change my view to see beauty
To hear the birds, to see the colors
To smell you in flowers
To feel you in a handful of soil
In a patch of grass
In a little sunlight
Let me know you are the dark cloud I feel
You are the thunder, you are the flood
You are also the sun, the moon, the sky
You are all that I know and all that I don't know
Let me remain in you
I surrender with a smile
With a last bit of prayer
Let me be you
With that I end my conversation
