The Longing
The Longing
We long for a shangri la of the soul,
a place where those gather
who went through the portal,
flung themselves into the fire,
and became beacons of light.
We want to hear words
from the lips
of the wise ones,
those who will open us,
give us messages
from unknown realms.
give us messages
from unknown realms.
We wish to hear music
that will fill our bodies
with light,
to ascend to the regions
where spirit prevails
and we become beauty.
and we become beauty.
When will out transfiguration occur?
When will the ones from elsewhere
claim us,
carry us over the worlds
to that place we ache for,
which we once knew
as home?
which we once knew
as home?
