Dawn of Sorrow
Dawn of Sorrow
Through suffering my heart breaks
Open
Coercing , preparing, making space
Tears like twinkling stars fall
Through the vast night sky of my awareness
Filling the gaping chasm
A bottomless well of shimmering splendor
Upon which the light of consciousness dances
Reflects and multiplies
Cascading out in a million directions
As sunlight through a prism
Rainbows dance across the walls of my heart
Unfathomable depths of sorrow
Exemplifying the unbearably beautiful joy of being
My mind
Clear as crystal
Understands
That love and loss are two sides of the same token
Never apart
Nothing is separate
Realization dawns
A sunrise upon the darkened valley of my soul
