Open the Window
Look into my eyes,
for they are the window to my soul -
or so I'm told.
Can you see me?
Can you see the little girl
who sits
alone in the corner,
crying for her mommy?
Can you see the woman
dancing naked
in the moonlight -
calling to the goddess
in the forest clearing?
Can you see what drives me?
what makes me burn,
what passions I entertain;
Can you hear my unspoken words
in the touch of my fingers?
Come in, the window is unlocked,
the whole universe is in here.
I am the Alpha and Omega,
the Darkness and the Light
I am love and fear.
It's all here, awaiting you
Ouvrez la fenetre, mon ami...
just open the window...
By Michelle Compton
