I awakened from one dream into the next,
Peeling away the veil on another layer
Of the illusion of this reality,
Repeating this cycle of tiny deaths
And awakenings
Until I returned once again
To the light;
And all of the wanting,
The suffering and pain of attachment,
Had burned away in the heart-fire;
And I remembered,
Not who I am,
But what I had always been --
The clear, bright light
Of Divinity.

I heard the World call: ah-aaah! 
Like birdsong 
Bursting through the silence
Of the Great Mother's womb,
From whence the oceans
And all subsequent life
Have been birthed --
The slow, rolling waves
Of Consciousness,
Lapping at the shores
Of this existence,
Embracing me like a warm bath.

"I am a woman,"
Says the curves of these thighs,
Says this skin, soft and supple
As the clouds in my skies.

"I am a woman,"
Says the fire in these eyes,
Fearlessly, they open wide
Despite the secrets that they hide.

"I am a woman,"
Says the beating of this heart,
Says the scars that wrap around it
From the times it's torn apart. 

"I am a woman,"
Says this unending stream of love
That connects you, wrapped up in these arms,
​To the Heavens up above.

"I am a woman,"
Says every cell of this Earthly form
Until I return to the androgyny 
​Of the God from which I'm born.
