When you wake you return
To your body
That temple
City of shadows and lights
With your eyes closed
You prepare for departure again
To that mountain
That temple
Forest of shadow and sun
With your third eye open
Listen, princess
It’s a lie they tell you
The prince will not come to take you away
But one will come,
To guard you while you fight
It’s an inconvenient truth,
Oh prince
Though you feel the safety of it in your heart
It’s the princess who rescues, as much as you
It’s the union and the distinction that saves
How can you stay here
In your body,
Your prison
Hearing scratches at your door
Dear princess
They tell you lies from birth
It’s not their fault
They can only pass on what they’ve been shown
Here,
This second
You dream you are reading
Words about yourself
Warnings, encouragement
Here,
Here
Wake with me
In your body you dream
They said you were royalty
They only knew half the truth
In your dream body you know
You are more than a human
More than male, more than female
More than two, less than one
In your body you dream
You are all the eyes of every universe
You are more than a universe
You are less than nothing
You are fullness and emptiness themselves
And between
And everything else you cannot be
In your body
It’s you,
Dreamer
It always was
You wake to your own rescue
You, in every body
Sleeping and seeing
Blinded and alive
