Existence I am reside remotely beyond your consciousness much like a reflection from the front of a glass mistaken as a ghostly image if search me out beyond where I exist. You can always sense me like someone who’s suddenly standing behind you, yet when you turn around; I am never there. Yet I am the one who whispers in your ear and warns you of pending danger. I can end up being your better sense or a ghost who constantly haunts your mind. I have no name because I only exist in a spiritual form. Some refer to me as a soul, and I’m beyond reasoning in this world. Since no one can physically touch me or see me much like the air you constantly breathe I am always present within you until a time you no longer exist. Whether I stay around or go off to another place, only those who really know of me sense my time and space. To them I share wisdom from beyond and they understand me and know my value. Many are concerned of my future and search me out through confirmed religious faith and not where I dwell. They are easily misled by what they feel and not what lies within themselves. Their religious text speaks of me in the realm I reside, but they lean toward their thoughts where I can not be found and am only a dream. I hold the mystery of the world and what lies beyond, be it good or distress is a matter of the mind, I am connected to what is beyond time and space. To many I do not exist. To a few all that does who find my spiritual sense. Look deep within your heart in a lonely quiet room, but be aware you may not like what you find. I am what is present, and what is really inside of you and it can be a scary place to find. Seek me out if you have the courage because I am part of what does not exist and everything that does. At first in my presence you’ll find I have the images and voices of demons, but if you stay long enough you’ll also find I also have images and sweet songs of angels. Whether I’ll change your outlook on existence only time will tell. © 2006 by Merlyn Hearn |

Thank you for taking the time to respond while the world spins through time and space. I realize I’m about as important as an ant compared to the outer realm in which I exist, should think as such; not too much sun, not too much water above my knees. Be concerned of a larger being then me, so as not have an untimely demise, an untimely surprise if I follow the swam who leave where they are suppose to stay. What food for thought I have found I share freely. It is but a small piece so savor it slowly. If you hunger for more remember where you can find it. For now I must go—perhaps down my little hole, perhaps to find a larger stone to roll. You are all too kind. |
