The Child’s Dream
A man asks… Why i am not able to be faithful in my relationships ?
The Child’s Dream
Dear Child
Please listen to our words
for we call you Child
not with out meaning
You are a Man yes
but in a Child’s heart
and the heart
of this Child wishes
to dream
to dream
of places
where no one gets hurt
where no lies are told
where no one is troubled
where no harm can be found
And this Child
wishes to find
this world
as his reality
his home
his place
where he can run and hide
when all becomes
troubled
once again
Darling Child
the trouble
you run from
and the dream
you seek
are birthed
from the same
seed
The dream
arrived
as a wished for place
where that one
so very young
dreamed he could
hide
a safe place
to escape from
the very adult pressures
forced upon him
like strong gale winds
creating upheavals
The trouble
created
by the infidelities
is the whirl wind
dust
of the pains
from long ago
that continue to
haunt
your tender heart
and convince him
he is not enough
for love
so he pushes
against it
whenever it comes close
Yet he craves it so desperately
for maybe the dream lives over there
In a new set of arms, in a new set of stories
maybe i will find the place
where i can relax and trust again
just maybe…
But every time you get close
like a hot poker jabbing you
you feel
the burn of love
telling you
you are not worthy
Dear Child
you are the Child
seeking a world
other than
what is and was yours
and although
this seeking
is all so normal
there is no where
it will take you
but in a circle
We hand you
a sword of love
to cut the binding
with the habits of running
and to fall
into the utter anguish
you are carrying
for until
you fall
and cannot see the wound clearly
you will not be able to
stop the cycle
of the dreamer
who keeps seeking
the dream
yet not believing
he is worth it
Every time
you have cheated
or lied
has been a moment
of the lack of self belief
that you are
worthy of love
Having this clear and true vision
of what has motivated the painful actions
in your heart and mind
will set your self free
from the cycle of
unfulfilled dreams
Free to discover
a dream
that is not
of the boy
but is the true inspiration
of the man
a life
of Self Value
of giving love
and most of all
for this one who births forward
receiving love
