getting down

by Rachel Lynch


I'm getting used to it here. The bedroom skylight burning through morning skin. There is no better place for my lover and I, drenched in the summer sun. In the darkest point of night, and without you by my side, I am a victim of my own mind. 

But sometimes, a certain way of looking at the world doesn't work for us anymore. So we settle for happiness. As much as our old self wants to reject every positive vibration, we move forward because we know nothing else works. 

Looking at the world through a mental filter of fear only breeds more, so we choose to be an instrument of blessing. The mind is so powerful, it creates form on every level, and I see that now. Patti Smith said, "In time, we often become one with those we once failed to understand."  I hope this is true, because I was never really able to see you. 

I apologize for this, perhaps the place in which I dwelled before had not been filled with enough light.

"You are a miracle, capable of creating in the likeness of your creator. Everything else is your own nightmare, and does not exist. Only the creations of light are real."
