In our meditation, we start to find the place of stillness,
of complete acceptance; radical acceptance.
Because we've stopped trying to mold our inner experience.

as we allow ourselves to rest in it,
starts to undo our conditioning.

You, with the amaretto eyes
and lips of refreshing candor;
you move like the silent letters-

but still end up mispronouncing.
You are a reliquary of scars
living in a world of your own,
and I-
I only hope
I'm not just passing through.
