They say what goes around They say it comes around While I like the sound of that I believe It's true In all your desperate Ways to feel the movement of your spirit Your honest intentions help Directly grasp the truth To stay in here, in now I'd tell you if I knew how Succumbing to what I feel is love To wake up Remember Your birthright Eternal

All along the love you had Was half as much As what you'd like to give Even when a cloud hung low The light inside Was always greater than The darkness of its shadow Don't stop trying now You're greater than you were Don't you know you've got All the time in the world?

Once on a trip with my father When he said he'd like to see the ocean And catch some fish Went to his boat, to the water Then he caught the rarest in the ocean With gold in its mouth "My son it's yours to hold With this you'll never be alone You and I are one" I saw his lips They didn't move once I saw it perfectly, the image he wants He gave it clearly to me one of his thoughts Now I must try to get the others In the distance came a structure It shined like the heavens In the shape of a pyramid Walked through its doors And with clean feet I reached up the stairs in to the highest, sacred room And there I fell into a state of love That I cannot describe At once I knew the truth I heard That you and I are one I cut you off Sorry for all the wait How can one think they're separate From that which is inside themself? I have received countless Visions and messages Transmitted to me from light I surrender to your will Do with me as you see fit

From Akasha 03:50
Deeper inside The inner walls of mind The doors to which Are opened to the initiate Forged between the levels Fourth and Fifth The subconscious storehouse 1600's incarnation In the female form this time around Expedition on the open sea A capsized ship took me beneath I traveled horizontally Now i go Vertically

February 18th I woke up in a dream And I saw no one that I knew Or so I thought Middle of the room When I came to First man I see Who are you He asked the same question It was more of a "Who do I think I AM" He knew just why I came My candle to His flame Tears running down my face When I turn around Words to contemplate There were others to my side And behind Do you all have your own lives Responding yes A feeling of connectedness They are all of the time These aspects of myself Separate in density Expressing through me Their own kinds of dreams To stay and go Sleeping, dreaming Come as you are I'll let you out It's well to keep a light on 40 watts as bright as the sun

How strange it is to see Tombstone engravings Names that I used to be Precious history The Earth must be swimming In who I used to be My soul It comes and goes Through the ages Right here, right now With intention to learn And grow And Light a candle Before I entered this life Existing as light A treasure caught the eye Marking this time What a beautiful moment to be alive! I was meant to be here now

Perception 05:27
Late at night you call to me With still desire All of Self aligning to receive the OM You know and recognize You're home See my face in everyone you meet As your own Lose the little part of self The small ego Search and find the light inside Between the brows You see that I am Always with you And everyone And everything "There is no place Within or without That I do not perceive The window is here for you to see You already have the key" You hold this sound Wherever you go I hear this sound Wherever I go

That moment It felt so real, authentic Wind blown, Weightless The sun, I felt it A step turned to Quite the distance to traverse Street lights turned To stepping stones Where do you go when You lay head down at night Before you're back in the morning Where have you been Each leap gained speed And momentum In one more jump I'd be from the form of An earth-bound cage Holding me down The ground stayed beneath And painted me as sky Where do you go when You lay your head down at night Before you're back in the morning Where have you been Now you're back into a body Back with an image It would be unwise To dismiss it Where do you go every night What did you learn You know you're more than a head Seeing behind covered eyes So much more What you see in your dream And how you feel means That you leave Ascending Beyond your body

Aquarius comes now Only to return again Spoken by lips countless This cycles mantra Recognizing power In genetic keys Breathing in the same air Past Aquarians breathed
