present – Jen Hoeft

I can’t save you…

Posted on September 24, 2012September 9, 2013 by Jen Hoeft

I can’t save you

My brilliantly shattered one

I can only love you

Through your war… through your fun.

I can’t save you

Even if I tried.

I can only hold you

As you heal from the inside.

I can’t save you

Though I try and try and try.

I can only imagine

A whole spirit ready to fly.

I can’t save you

From the hazards of Life

I can only expand

Into your newness, your Light.

I can’t save you.

My scar-tissue Baby…

I can only be you

Present… in a world of maybes.

Choices…

Posted on September 24, 2012September 9, 2013 by Jen Hoeft

Life is full of choices,

We hold them in our hands,

Like chunks of baby diamonds,

A treasure trove of plans…

“I hope i make the ‘right’ one”…

Meaning no one hurts too bad,

But hope is a glass of nothing,

Swallowing the knowledge you’ll never have.

You can’t know “what if”

or what might have been before…

You can’t have everything at once

You can’t know the final score.

You can go deep inside,

The present moment lives in there…

And ask yourself what is real,

And be brave enough to care.

For every moment is full of diamonds,

Shining for your gaze,

As you sink into your reality,

Your rising journey will amaze…

Live…

Play… like the 4 year old inside you,

Cry… when your spirit needs a bath.

Run… when the answers are hiding,

Sleep… like a puppy taking a nap.

Be real, Be passion, Be authentic.
Be aware. Be awake. Be unique.
What happens next is a mystery,
Be present, and feel what that means.

Sit…in the the quiet of your soul,

Laugh… as the drama of life unfolds.

Balance… in the joy and the sorrow,

Dream… right now… like there’s no tomorrow…
