Come in...

when i went to seek you
this morning
i found you by the gate
looking in and wondering
what lay on the other side
i saw you button your
coat up
and wrap your arms around
your chest
and sigh so long and heavy
what is this about?
could it be that you are not
sure in what is to be the
next step?
because if you are the type
that is not sturdy inside
and lights
on the lamp to simply look
and not go in
then love
how totally barren
you could be the one that
comes in like the others
that speak of truth and light
and live in  the wondrous
glory of the eternal
or you could be the one that
does not know yourself for
a long turn of time
but this is not the way
is it?

once you come into yourself
you will find that
happiness is so very right
in this beauty of *now*
so come in
find that you are here
in the SELF
like all that are free
so happy and so untainted
like you are meant to be
dear one
the gate has always
been open
come in.....
