love’s sacred warrior

“What will you surrender for Love? Are you willing to give

up your fears?”

-James

Traverse

what is the difference

between love and war?

the source of two

as the origin of confusion

how much distinction is there

between compassion and hate?

returning to one

as the embrace of understanding

love rejected and scorned may turn into pride

wrapped around hopes

pride wounded arises as anger

enveloped in dreams

anger expressed arises as hatred

trapped in a mirror hatred erupting arises as

violence

betrayed in illusion violence manifesting

arises as chaos

entangled and twisted chaos

destroying order returns to the source

around its centerless circumference

the source is like water resident in all things

it yields to all forms yet has no shape of its own

it rests in what lies beneath

deeper than depth

it shines on jagged pinnacles

brighter than light

it runs wild and free over land

faster than speed

it soars in what lies beyond

further than distance

love rejected and scorned eventually turns into humility

embracing as two, the understanding of one

humility is the searing balm of angry tears

in its moisture, it nurtures its growth

angry tears forge the keen sword of justice

in its daylight, it caresses its shape

the sword of justice restores fallen divinity

in its silence, it hears its echo

divinity is love resurrected as compassion

in its perception, it sees its eye

how much distinction is there

between compassion and love?

the source of two

as the embrace of confusion

how much difference is there

between war and hate?

returning to one

as the origin of understanding

in your right you hold a sword

on your left hand you wear a ring

the circle of life

as love's sacred warrior

at the center of the ring, on the edge of the sword

where no step walks the trodden path

pride surrenders to humility, love embraces hate

where no turn spins the grinding stone

one sacred warrior kneels at his beloved’s holy feet

where no fight conquers the sacred war

one warrior accepting defeat arises into divinity

the center never moves

these three remain, love, hatred and compassion

the king was humbled

but the greatest of these is compassion

the servant was crowned

compassion transcends turbulence

by love's sacred warrior
