No choice now, the die is cast.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>At some point, some moment on this journey we come to places that don\u2019t yield, so dense that almost all will simply pass them by unseen or turn away. Today I sit in one. It has been there in front of me all along, a place I know.<\/p>\n<p><em>She takes a step off the edge, she explores.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Ink black, sharp jutting edges to this space, a deeper dense silence is here. The absence of light yet something called me to this place. Some sound, a slow surfacing of an emotion, I wait.<\/p>\n<p>A distant and far away memory surfaces in a hush, a Knowing one penetrates. Great is the sadness, no rolling waves of grief \u2026 an eminent sorrow permeates. Sounds of souls, a single soul it seems.<\/p>\n<p><em>She muses on what brought her here, a longing accompanied by something else, something she doesn\u2019t want to face. She knows now that these are the places she must go. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>She has been warned, She has been prohibited yet she dares.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I am flicking back and forth between a white rose and this place. Compassion honed in stone, words emerge trying to bring up some knowing. Consumed. <em>She that consumes.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Black heart rock core.<\/p>\n<p>A fluttering of an angel\u2019s wing, a single feather moves and is almost missed.<\/p>\n<p><em>She sees, melded, molded, twisted and tangled mass. She sees. No denying this part of Her. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>A slow hot tear rolls down my cheek, no gushing sound. My breath, I breathe. So finite is this place.<\/p>\n<p>So many were lost, too many. Consumed in some ancient flame. This will take some time, memories won\u2019t erupt here, they will come like a rising mist. <em>She knows, she is told that it must be so.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Now comes over her a reverence, not to one but to all. She sits. Whispers in the dark she listens. She knows words will not arise from this place, some great secret to be revealed here. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>The letting go continues, the light that masks the dark reveals. I feel a tiny smile rise and fall on my lips, a lift. We miss so much only searching for the light, this dark place, a haunting beauty, a remembrance of lost dreams and innocence.<\/p>\n<p>Drawing light from the dark, this depth that is not the Void, something else lays hidden here.<\/p>\n<p><em>She allows the tears to flow, some cleansing and another piece that is returning. In our rush for light this place so missed, angels lie buried beneath our feet. <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>She is going deeper, not sure what is taking her there.
