If I could tell you: A poem 

If I could whisper sweet nothings 

as if in belonging to nothingness 

one exists in the everything of spirit 

So that the enigma of my being  

utters, in a mere one word, its mystery 

even if you may know it already 

To many it may seem I have lasted  

only a season for you, like a leaf 

and yet I even outlasted eternity 

The Pangea of my tree, may have been 

splintered, but do you see, I invisibly 

stood upright for the fight for all my loves! 

And, most importantly, for you! 

I couldn’t bridge the despair 

of finding you and not possessing you 

But I am a dervish dancer, a pirouetting flame 

that exists not only for its own existence 

but remembers the laughter of the soul it shared 

with the beauty of another, lost but always remembered in time 

Have I walked the narrow alleys of this space-time 

both, enervated by a sense of loss and  

invigorated by hope. If I could tell you  

in so many difficult words, that are 

split wide apart by pitfalls of evil 

that God exists in his sacrifice for love 

Even if, sometimes, he doubts that it may not be fulfilled  

because of the failure to achieve it due to overwhelming treachery! 

Yet he feels his omnipotence  

in his everlasting patience and faith!

Hi, I am Monte Cyril Rodrigues and live in Melbourne, Australia. I am a retired journalist. I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia. I've had voices and visions all my life. I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
