Listening beyond the veil
A new language
Birthing itself
Through you
Left and right at the same time
Unified
A language arising from the cells
Without words
Playing like an instrument
Flowing in movement
Moving through the sllence
A new tune
Not what you imagined
You can’t go to sleep and hope to awaken speaking this language
You must be present to receive
Each new note
As it is offered
One note at a time
Then let it sing
Sometimes discordant
Until it knows its pitch in this body
And then wait for the next
Until maybe one day
You move as a song
Speak as a prayer
Live in harmony
Life is already living itself
Already singing its tune
It doesn’t mind if you join in with your voice
Or stay on the sidelines
imagining yourself to be the conductor
But life welcomes you with open arms
Because the more voices that sing her song
The more beautiful
The more unified
Is the sound
But beware
These notes
This language
Cannot be sought out
Cannot be taught
They are heard in the silence
Between the words
In the space in-between
It is a language, a song unique to you
Only you can hear its unique pitch
Only you can receive the exact constellation of sounds
Be be patient and wait
Do not speak too soon
Until the song starts to sing you
And life finds its unique expression through you
Then you too join life’s choir
