The conditions of freedom are six:

That one only has the present moment to have and nothing else;
That fear and death is conquered with love and courage;
That one travels eternally alone and yet united with all;
That one touches the world so lightly;
That one leaves all self importance behind
That one is imbued with an adventurous spirit to survive the onslaught of the unknown.

I need to surrender all that I am so I can really be
I need to abandon all that I have so I can be Me
There is no past there is no future there is only now
There is no time and space there is only reverence now.

My litte self wants to be in command of my little universe
To take control of all illusions of pride, property, and attachments
To relish in pleasure and pain, in words and verse,
To forget the powerful silence, the immovable in all movements.

I will follow the pain so that i will know better
I will follow the silence, through heavens and ether
I will confront the darkness so i will land on the shores of knowing
I will purify myself to learn the triumph of living and loving.

In my silence there is only you
When voices no longer mattered only you remain
In the darkness only your image rings true
You are my final refuge from all the pain.

The wind whispers only your name
The sun the trees all shout and claim
The beauty of a soul, the life, the mystery
The dreams, the possibilities of what we can be.

For us there is no beginning
And there is no end
There is only travelling til the last
of the road in life's bend.

You live inside of me
And I live inside your heart.
No circumstance nor tragedy
can ever pull us apart.
