Separation

Contemplation of separation
I feel with lack of communication
Wheels spinning at what could be
When you are far away from me?

I stretch my arms to find some help
Though alone I find myself
The question now of what to do
With no one here to give me to

Anxious thoughts when I’m alone
Self-loathing trying to find its home
The ego looks for open doors
And pulls me in to needing more

I fear my karma and its price
So it makes me live it twice
If I see it and stay true
And do the work to see it through

Maybe alone is where I’ll be
Knowledge born inside of me
That separation is illusion
And with the One I will have union
