Ancient Snake Teachings: Passion, Fire and the Unknown

Shed this old skin-
Shed the old and let the new in;-
Flexible, strong and sensitive
Rise... rise..... rise........
Oh how I welcome with open arms 
the fire burning bright-
and never ever wistful for this passion to calm
Never reluctant to feel, vibrate....
This.... this beautiful rawness, this deep understanding
without needing to say a word.
And when the flames shrink to its base
Only then do the coals lay, hot and constant
Hot and constant.... hot and constant....
Breath ignites my flame inside-
Oh what delight, what bliss, what passion.....
Only then can I surrender to feel all......
Pain, love, the 'good and the bad'...
Everything....
All.........
I hunger for the unknown, drive me into your darkness
Into the core of your mysteries
Take me.... Take me....
Take me to the unknown and back,
For I yearn to feel more
Teach me how sweet life can be, teach me more wonders....
For I am forever your student....

Stay Awake with Me

Stay awake with me.....
Keep your eyes open
Feeling, seeing, tasting, hearing
More...More...More...
Your candle may flicker
In the darkness of night...
Just feel your heart beat,
Center yourself and
Hold on tight.
Stay awake with me.....
Breathe...
Dive to your depths
Swirling, tingling, ears ringing
Feel..Feel..Feel....
Feel your own power
Steady from within
Embrace this energy
Have no fear
Let your heart sing
Stay awake with me
Just stay awake with me
