MY DECLARATION OF WHO I AM
I am MAYA, Jessica MAYA
I AM 1 little candle
Burning bright as I can…
I AM SEEKER
Seeker of the FLAME…
I AM SEEKER
Seeker of the TRUTH,
Or some truths, or No Truths,
I AM NOT yet FREE…as I truly want to BE,
yet sometimes in rare moments, I FIND
I already AM
Just don’t know how to GET there…
GET there from HERE
I AM MAYA, Mother of CREATION
My daughter MALAYA (the ONE that's FREE)
My latest invention DIEGO RAY, 5 years YOUNG,
Shines like the SUN,
With EYES that can pierce your SOUL…
THROUGH ME THESE 2 CAME...
FROM THEM I ARRIVED
At a place SO SACRED
WHERE I ENDURED – SURVIVED – LOVE MY LIFE.
NOW I AM CREATING
MY OWN SACRED SPACE
ONE THAT NEEDS LOTS OF LIGHT
TO GUIDE ME OUT OF THAT DARK TUNNEL,
MY OWN SACRED SPACE…
ONE THAT NEEDS LOTS OF WATERING
TO NURTURE MY SPIRIT
ONE THAT NEEDS AIR AND SPACE
FOR MY FANCIES AND FLIGHTS
ONE WHERE I DON’T HAVE TO PUT UP A FIGHT
ONE WHERE I CAN HOLD MY HEART'S DESIRE
ONE WHERE I CAN FIND PEACE IN BEING ONE
ONE WHERE I CAN REST MY HEAD AWHILE
ONE WHERE I CAN CONTINUE TO HEAL INSIDE
ONE WHERE I CAN BE JUST ME,
NO OTHER.
ONE WHERE I AM FREE,
NO ONE WILL BOTHER
ONE WHERE I CAN SCREAM, KICK & HOLLER
WHENEVER I NEED TO FACE MY OWN DEMONS
ONE WHERE I CAN LISTEN TO THE SPACES
THOSE INNER, INNER SPACES WHERE
NO ONE DARE VENTURE
ONLY THE BRAVE & ONE OF TRUE NATURE
AND IN MY OWN SACRED SPACE
I SHALL WAIT FOR THAT ONE
MY ONE & ONLY BRAVE
MY ONE OF TRUE NATURE.
What else AM I, what else is there YOU might ASK?
What U SEE is what U GET
But not all the time…
WHAT I AM IS STILL EVOLVING
AS I AM REVOLVING
IN THE SPACES OF MY CHOOSING
CAUSE THAT'S MY CHOOSING
And what I AM IS FULL OF LOVE
MY CUP DOES OVERFLOW
AND HOW THAT ALL CAME TO BEING
IT JUST DAWNED ON ME
WHEN ONE MOMENT IN INFINITY
A LIGHT SO BRIGHT
SHONE ON ME….
AND A KNOWING CAME TO
WHAT I AM,
THAT I HAVE KNOWN THAT LIGHT
FROM WHEN AND WHERE I KNOW NOT,
BUT THAT IT CAME
FROM THAT ONE KNIGHT
WITHIN THAT ONE SPACE & TIME
WHEN ALL QUESTIONS WERE OPENED
AND ALL PAST BE FORGOT
AM I WHOLE?
AM I COMPLETE?
AND I DECLARED YES!
BUT MAYBE, I'M NOT?
…YET… FOR FEAR OF FLIGHT.
THAT IS WHERE I AM RIGHT NOW….
IN THE HERE AND NOW.
