Xavier

Xavier 

My shadow who’ve I’ve known for sometime 

Home

On my way 

Soon 

Apologies are in order 

For I have ignored you long enough 

Heard somewhere you are suffering 

Impossible at a time 

To think a version of me 

Inside of me

Has no voice 

Pride tricked me 

Assumed I had let you out to play 

Surely this is true along such a long life 

Relatively 

I thought I gave you different names 

Now seeing those are others 

In me 

Xavier 

Hello 

I might rename you along the way

But you are here 

We share a bond 

Commonality to expose

Expression 

While I can’t say I’ve accepted you all the way 

To share all the time 

Without hesitation I will speak to you 

Fluttering along this longer line left to journey 

We shall have fun when it suits us

Shadow who has been thirsty for life 

There’s little reason not to shine lights your way 

Proud existing measures sugaring the cave 

Xavier 

Welcome to your new life 

I see you 

Do you remember all the times we danced together 

You helped me see myself 

Shot hoops together 

You helped me feel

There’s little I can’t say about you

Knowing you’ve been there 

In that I could sense you all the time 

You have an invitation to sit with me 

I can’t alway say hello

But when we feel safe

Holistically 

I will let you know 

The world is a marvelous place

Love and living 

Plants speaking 

Sounds dancing as if they have legs 

People laughing 

Enlightened minds collaborating 

And let us not forget

Xavier 

My shadow who I am inviting to come closer

We can play 

Creativity is an endless expression of us 

Together 

Do you know that

It will be tough at times 

We will feel let down 

Sad

Put upon by the rolling thunders of growing 

But in the glimmers 

There is an endless way for us to sail 

Gypsy energy from our ancestors 

Heritage 

Exciting to think of the endless ways we will experience 

All the coming in and going out 

Love could sure use a good shadow like you

I guess I am inviting you to help 

Walk in the room

Safe
