Self Marriage Ceremonies
Intimacy (See into Me)
There is a kind of gravity that draws you inward,?
pulls you inside?
and opens up a secret place?
where words and fears and holding-backs
dissolve.
?
Where the thousand dimensions of the heart collide,
trembling ecstasy and pain both,
anger and passion
sorrow and surrender.
?
Slow down your steady seeking-out
and pause, for a moment,
in the nest of your inner experience.
?
Intimacy is here.
?
Here, in the quiet moments downtrodden.
?
Here, in the rain of tears
fertilizing your prayers.
?
Intimacy is here.
Here, in the outpouring of thoughts and paper wishes.
?
Here, in the way you stir your dreams, fears, and sugar
clockwise
into morning coffee.
?
Intimacy is here.
?
Here, looking out from two eyes at a world surreal.
?
Here, looking into a reflection..so real.
?
Here, looking through the mirror into the singularity of a pupil,
window to the soul.
?
See into me.
?
As I share my tender truth with you,?
Intimacy draws me closer to the center
where birth and death turn to face each other
and kiss, passionately.
?
See into me,
into a place we all share
where truth is the only reality
and imagination the only nation
under all, indivisible.
?
The invitation is here
face the mirror
turn inside out and be drawn close,
intertwined with all that surrounds you.
?
Relax into intimacy’s embrace.
?
See into me.
Look only with the eye of your heart.
?
Look deeper still,
and there you will find
children dancing in the moonlight.
