and in return,
we burden you,
with our shame.
You know all of us by name
and in return,
we burden you,
with our blame.
You know us inside out
and in return,
we cry and whinge and pout.
You reach out to us,
in the silence
and in return,
we drown you out.
We don't want to listen,
to your wisdom
and we don't want to understand,
your love.
We can't fathom,
that there's only you,
we don't seem to get,
this elementary clue.
You stand silently,
in the doorway,
between the world
and your Divine insight.
You wait patiently
for us to awaken
and walk slowly,
towards your light.
You wait patiently,
for us to wake up
and give up,
on our Godless plight.
It's the same love,
for Mother, Father.
It's the same love,
for me and you.
It's the same love,
for one another
and it's this love,
that's our only truth.
If I love you more than he,
and if she loves you,
more than me.
The imbalance,
leaves us empty
so it's the balance,
that's the key.
As I continue on my journey,
to realize this simple truth.
I am more conscious,
of this yearning,
that I have carried,
since my youth ......
