Focus on Your Enlightenment

The world is falling apart,
For it cannot live together,
For love is absent from the tables of millions,
So the table becomes divided,
For only love is the great unifier,
How do I know this is true?
When you are in love,
You cannot leave,
You will bleed,
You will give the seeds,
To grow new hope,
You become selfless,
The mother places herself in danger,
For the love of her life diminishes,
Before the love of her children.

Love is not an ideal,
It is the foundation to life itself,
It is life itself,
It is formless,
Yet it takes the form,
Through the eyes of love.

When you are seeking to attract love into your life,
You will live in a space without love,
This is empty,
For love is not there,
So you will seek it,
But you may or may not find it,
You will feel the grey clouds of coldness roll in,
For you will despise the object of your desire,
For you feel denied,
You are imprisoned,
Not by the object,
But by the desire.

For you are not aware of the truth,
That is living within you,
That gives you a nudge,
Or a feeling when you are sure,
For the harmony will look upon the world
With the deepest kindness,
You are the love,
You are the dove,
When you set yourself free,
You will see,
That it is in what you give,
Not what you take,
That true strength is found,
For to give acknowledges wealth,
To take is in need of wealth,
Each define each moment,
But if on balance you take it all,
You lose everything,
For the external world becomes your lover,
But it feels out of your control,
Your inner world is your teacher,
For choices provide new horizons,
As the being of love,
You attract others to your light,
If all withdraw,
You are never alone,
For you love yourself,
You are not seeking to fill gaps,
This is not a vanity,
But a self respect,
For your integrity is kept,
In the truth of your smile.

It matters not what the other is doing,
What matters is who you really are,
If all focus within,
Removing the weeds to allow more light,
Then enlightenment can be felt,
For all actions are based in love,
The fear subsides like a sunset on old ideas,

For a focus on self,
Produces selflessness,
As one increasingly acts on a feeling,
Not a thought,
On a knowing,
Not what is taught,
For truth is hidden,
Within the heart of love,
It cannot be learned only felt,
For you are truth itself.
