If it is bread that you seek, you will have bread.

If it is the soul you seek, you will find the soul.

If you understand this secret, you know you are that which you seek.

      A craftsman pulled a reed from the reedbed,
      cut holes in it, and called it a human being.

      Since then, it's been wailing a tender agony
      of parting, never mentioning the skill
      that gave it life as a flute.

      I am your lover, come to my side, I will open the gate to your love.
      Come settle with me, let us be neighbors to the stars.
      You have been hiding so long, endlessly drifting in the sea of my love.
      Even so, you have always been connected to me.
      Concealed, revealed, in the unknown, in the un-manifest.
      I am life itself. You have been a prisoner of a little pond,
      I am the ocean and its turbulent flood. Come merge with me,
      leave this world of ignorance. Be with me, I will open the gate to your love.

      For years, copying other people, I tried to know myself.
      From within, I couldn't decide what to do.
      Unable to see, I heard my name being called.
      Then I walked outside.

      There is some kiss we want with
      our whole lives, the touch of
      spirit on the body. Seawater
      begs the pearl to break its shell.
      and the lily, how passionately
      it needs some wild darling! At
      night, I open the window and ask
      the moon to come and press its
      face against mine. Breathe into
      me. Close the language door and
      open the lovers window. The moon
      won’t use the door, only the window.

      This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say.
      I don't plan it.
      When I'm outside the saying of it,
      I get very quiet and rarely speak at all.

          "I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."
          "You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,
          Love like you'll never be hurt,
          Sing like there's nobody listening,
          And live like it's heaven on earth."
          "You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough."
          "In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on."
          "To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all."

            It is often said that before you die your life passes before your eyes. It is in fact true. It's called living.
