IMMORTAL DIAMOND POEMS #3
Deeper
Than our deepest identity
God
Our reality
Awaiting
Our destiny
Our source
Of love
Where we
May endlessly run.
~
Inspired by Richard Rohr, who writes about ““the human temptation to run from and deny not just the divine presence, but our own true selves, our inner destiny, our true identity”.

1.
~
So much fear
As if it was unbearable
~
To know
Our true selves
~
As if pain
Could destroy
~
The strength
Of the soul
~
Which endured it all
Despite the mind’s fall.

Inspired by ‘Immortal Diamond’ by Richard Rohr. He writes about “the human temptation to run from and deny not just the divine presence, but our own true selves, our inner destiny, our true identity“

2.
I was running
From God
As if life depended
On independence
A devoted delusion
Miring the mind
With ego’s sad
And blind confusion.

Inspired by Richard Rohr, who describes “the human temptation to run from and deny … the divine presence”.
