Behind My Walls

[Sachita]

Sandcastles built upon a beach of dreams

and laced with knights and ladies.

On a sailboat ride from afar

To fill a moat of loneliness.



Flying machines on laughter studded wings

we soar above our sorrows

to climb above the clouds of doubt

that we shouldn't be lovers tomorrow.



But our dreams awakened to the night

of the sun and the moon and neon light

when every word had feeling

and every sigh had meaning……we were one.



Then our dreams came crashing in the night

as we clung on tightly to our sacred flight

having feared we'd gone much to far

seared hearts and a lovers scar……we fell to our reality.



Yet I climb upon our sailboat mass and whisper to the world going by…



We were lovers for a time.

[Sachita]

Silent whispers speak to me

tell me secrets of days gone by

Primal dreams from long ago

Reasons why the angels cry.



Sleeping demons awaken within

I am not afraid of darkness.

Share your secrets of where you've been.

Dare I dance with you?



Goddess hold me in your arms

and protect me from thyself

So free, so free from harm

An innocent child I am.



Shadows float across my vision

obscure and disconcerting they scream,

unrevealed cries of passion,

that intrude into my dreams.



Kali please aid me on my flight

to journey into the unknown light

where truth lives in darkness.

and all of life a seductive fight against wills.



Diana please come to me

share your vision of my destiny

set my spirit free

Sweet huntress please come to me.



Aphrodite flying on your white dove

show me the mystery of Eve

Crimes of passions in the name of love

How long will She grieve?



Sacred feminine abound in thyself

A sense of beauty for all

That I might see beyond the certain

and lift the vale of this camouflaged curtain

so that I might hear your call.



Give me strength to confront defeat

and forgiveness in my heart

so that I may love my adversary

yet continue to do my part.



May the circle never be broken

and no love ever be final

May I feel the words unspoken

and never encounter denial.



May I walk my talk and dance my freedom

in the name of all who are free

to break the chains of silence

By breaking them first in me.



So this must be.
