UNSEALING THE HEART

How shall my heart be unsealed

unless it be broken?

Only great sorrow or great joy

can reveal your truth.

If you would be revealed

you must either

dance naked in the sun

or carry your cross.

SPEAKING AND LISTENING TO THE HEART

The voice of life in me cannot

reach the ear of life in you,

but let us talk that

we may not feel lonely.

Should one tell a lie that

does not hurt you nor anyone else,

why not say in your heart

that the house of facts

is too small for his fancies,

and he had to leave it

for a larger space?

A great person has two hearts:

one bleeds and the other forbears.

The reality of other people is

not in what they reveal to you,

but in what they cannot reveal to you.

Therefore if you would understand them,

listen not to what they say

but rather to what they do not say.
