Truth and Responsibility

Inspired by my Compassionate Inquiry colleagues I wrote a few words..

Truth & Responsibility


Let the world touch my skin

Feel the truth, the reality I’m in.

This is old, this is young,

In my head I hear the song I’ve always sung.

Bang the drum, bang the drum

Do the things you’ve always done.

There is another way to see,

Can you take responsibility?

Who am I right now in this,

What about me does my awareness miss?

If I unveiled the real truth in me

Who and how would I really be?

For Pamela, Gabriella, Mary, Varduhi, Dimitra, Rati & Christina

I wrote a poem ..

Who are you and where have you been

Are you ready to remember all the things that you’ve seen

Are you ready to realise what it is that you need

Are you the oak tree or are you the seed

Are you the villain on the stage of your life

Are you the ceremony, the groom or the wife

Do you know if you’re opening or closing, or both

Are you dead or dying, apparition or ghost

Are you real, or are you just a thought

Are you what’s been traded, stolen or bought

Will you follow your path

Do you trust in yourself

Are you given to living

In sickness and health

Does your spirit belong to all that you know

You forgot to forget, you’ve forgotten to grow

You’ve been drinking the poison from the most ancient of glasses

You’ve fell into the story, drank the drug of the masses

And now I see that you’re seeing

I can see than you’ve seen

As you begin to remember where you’ve actually been

You’ve struggled to see through your own blinding veil 

Your boats been untethered, are you ready to sail

Each wave as it rises believes it’s all it can be

But each wave is complete as it returns to the sea

Over and over and over again

You’re mind’s been expanding you can’t be the same

So give up your grip, let go and let be

Release all the pressures and set yourself free

I know that you sense it, you’ve got the taste in your mouth

Don’t let him trick you and fill you with doubt

He thinks he’s your saviour

He thinks he’s your guide

He doesn’t know it, he’s done nothing but lied

All that he wanted, all that he craved

Was to guide you undiscovered from cradle to grave

Now your’s is the glory, in presence and truth

Wise and unfolding, an ancient soul in your youth

Let them scramble

Let each come to their light

Every life is a message, each to unravel their plight

Each life an experience and must run its course

Each to extend, expand and and return to their source

You are the knower and you are the known

You are the guest and you are the home

You are the warmth emanating from fire

You’re what’s desired you are the desirer

You are the beloved and you are the love

You are the inside, the outside, you are all that’s below, all that’s above

For you are me and I am you

We are That which knows us

the riddle, the clue

We are the question that sleeps in your mind

We are the wind we are the tide

We are the closeness, the distance, the in and the out

We are certainty, we are doubt

We cannot be answered

Or solved, nor figured out

We are creator, destroyer, destination and scout

We are child, birth, man, woman and womb

We are infinity encased in our tomb

We are together arriving alone

We are nothing

Now we are home.
