1. Hello She Said

She came into my imagination
A few days ago
First, a vision, an abstract energy

“Hello” she said
Voice more a feeling
A sense
Like breathing

“Have you seen my brother?”
She asked
With gentle glowing lights
Maybe her eyes?

“Hello” she said
Voice more a feeling
A sense
Like breathing

“Your brother?”
I wondered
“But I do not even know who you are…”

“Yes, you do, or have you already forgotten?”
A voice came with a hazy smile

“Hello” she said
Voice more a feeling
A sense
Like breathing

Dreamy flowers
By her side
“I am the one who played with you
When you were a child”

“Hello” she said
Voice more a feeling
A sense
Like breathing

2. Yes, I remember

Yes, I remember
I remember the presence
Beside me
On those rainy Saturdays
When mum and dad would go for a nap

My brother in his room
And I am breathing the big house echoes
Echoes in my mind
Earth to the rain

Yes, I remember
I remember the presence
Beside me
On those rainy Saturdays
When mum and dad would go for a nap

Someone was there
With me
I remember
They would hear the whispers of my thoughts
Even as I did not speak

Yes, I remember
I remember the presence
Beside me
On those rainy Saturdays
When mum and dad would go for a nap

A presence
A dome of protection over a child’s heart
“Was that you?” I asked
“Have you come to play with me now?”

Yes, I remember
I remember the presence
Beside me
On those rainy Saturdays
When mum and dad would go for a nap

I am no longer that child
I regret to say
I am grown up now
Flown away from imagination

“I came to find my brother
He is lost” she said
“Can you help?”

Yes, I remember
I remember the presence
Beside me
On those rainy Saturdays
When mum and dad would go for a nap

3. A Moon Kissing The Glow Of The Sun

She seems radiant
A moon kissing the glow of the sun
All the heroes, all the clouds
Secrets in the sand

I often wondered
How the sky is so vast
How can it hold
Billions of stars?

And the billions of souls
On planet Earth
Who takes care of them?

She seems radiant
A moon kissing the glow of the sun
All the heroes, all the clouds
Secrets in the sand

And then she came, Xzaia
An energy
A spirit
A messenger from the past to the future

“So, will you help me find my brother?”
she asked

She seems radiant
A moon kissing the glow of the sun
All the heroes, all the clouds
Secrets in the sand

I stopped breathing
It all seems so real
yet imagined up

“When you were a child
You were good at finding lost things
Hiding inside your imagination”
She continued into my hesitation

She seems radiant
A moon kissing the glow of the sun
All the heroes, all the clouds
Secrets in the sand

4. Where Are You Now

“Lost things
In my imagination?”
I laughed

My mocking voice
Rolled out like a grey cloud
Covering her eyes

“Where are you now?”
She asked
“You need to make a decision”

To be honest
My response was a bit embarrassing

After all, imagination has always been
My friend
My companion

Inspiration
Open door
To the whispers of the
Courageous ancestors
A jar of boundless sweets

“Where are you now?”
She asked
“You need to make a decision”

When she arrived
Her presence illuminated
The darkness of my mind

Her voice
Gentle silk in my heart
Opening a golden trail, a path

“So, where are you now?”
She asked again
Her words lay on the paved path
Shimmering like the summer’s blue skies

“Where are you now?”
She asked
“You need to make a decision”
Ohhh hooo haa hooo
Ohhh hooo haa aahhha

“Where are you now?”
“You need to make a decision”

5. We’re Drifting

Shall I take this road?
No, I persisted
“Excuse my gentle thoughts”
Oh, we’re drifting

“Oh yes,” she jumped
Before I could continue
“Those human doubts...
Shall we call them ‘Ignorators’?...”

I laughed at her words
Or maybe it was
Her loving energy that tickled me

Shall I take this road?
No, I persisted
“Excuse my gentle thoughts…”
Oh, we’re drifting

“The Ignorators”
I thought quietly to myself
As if she could not hear
My silent voice
“You warned me against them
When I was a child”

Shall I take this road?
No, I persisted
“Excuse my gentle thoughts…”
Oh, we’re drifting

“Indeed, I have”
She said
“And in the midst
Of your playful days
What was your reply?”

Shall I take this road?
No, I persisted
“Excuse my gentle thoughts…”
Oh, we’re drifting

“I… I…” stammering
Like a bee that flies into a window
“Amm… uh…” again and again

Shall I take this road?
No, I persisted
“Excuse my gentle thoughts…”
Oh, we’re drifting

I knew it
I did remember what I had said
But I was afraid to say the words
For if I spoke
It would carry me
Unto the golden path in front

And, was I ready?

Shall I take this road?
No, I persisted
“Excuse my gentle thoughts…”
Oh, we’re drifting

6. From My Heart To Hers

“You know” she said
“Most people are afraid
Of themselves
More than they are afraid of others”
And when you look at the sky
Midnight clouds
Picking strawberries stars for tomorrow

A path with gold-blue pebbles
Opened in front of me
From my heart to hers

And I am supposed
To just start walking it
But where to?

“Most people are afraid
Of themselves
More than they are afraid of others”
And when you look at the sky
Midnight clouds
Picking strawberries stars for tomorrow

“I am here to find my brother
Will you help me?” she asked
I think, for the third time now

“Yes, but how?”
I replied
With no voice
With only the breath of a child-man

“Most people are afraid
Of themselves
More than they are afraid of others”
And when you look at the sky
Midnight clouds
Picking strawberries stars for tomorrow

“So, tell me…
In the midst
Of your playful days
When you used to talk to me
What did you say?”
Her curious eyes
Eager to know the secrets of my spirit now

“I… I told you that I am God’s helper!”

God’s helper!

7. But It Was So Real

She came to me
With a request
To find her lost brother

It seemed suspicious
It most likely
Happened in my imagination

But it was so real

“That is correct”
Her voice coming from behind me
Her energy at the front
“You told me
That you are God’s helper”

“You are here
On planet Earth to help humanity
Like all the other billions of you here”

It seemed suspicious
It most likely
Happened in my imagination

But it was so real

And as she spoke
She placed a jar
In the shape of a child’s tear
“What’s in the jar?” I asked
“Is this something that
Belongs to your
Missing brother?”

It seemed suspicious
It most likely
Happened in my imagination

But it was so real

“No” she replied
“But it could help us
Find him
If you are willing
To engage?”

“Engage…
A funny word
For a spirit to say”
I thought to myself

“You know
I can hear your thoughts”
She reminded me

“Well, engage; how?...” I asked

But there was no more time

We paused

Slowing down

It most likely
Happened in my imagination
But it was so real

8. “Ok” I Said But Hesitated Just The Same

I stood
Vast ocean with no sea
Empty me

“Ok” I said
But hesitated just the same
Glimmers of uncertainty
Here and there
“I am ready
I trust you”

Xzaia was there
But not exactly there
More like a star
But not up in the sky
A breeze
A hidden treasure

“Ok” I said
But hesitated just the same
Glimmers of uncertainty
Here and there
“I am ready
I trust you”

“People are spirits
That chose to live on Earth” she said
“But all too soon
You disappear on us
Fragrance of a delicate flower
carried by the wind”

That is exactly how I feel

“Ok” I said
But hesitated just the same
Glimmers of uncertainty
Here and there
“I am ready
I trust you”

“I am glad we agree” she said
A tear-shaped jar in front of me
“Come closer to the jar”

I hesitated
Closer?…
That means
I need
To climb up the golden path

Hmm…
I knew I would be
Tricked to start walking this path

A pathetic image, I thought
Almost every healing, every meditation
Starts with a ‘path’ of some sort

“Are you planning
To make me some sort of
A script for a meditation?” I asked

“Oh yes…” she replied
“Your Ignorators are speaking again...”

The Ignorators…
Those elusive clouds of doubts
Glimmering brightly in the night sky
Screaming their light
So as to hide ours from us
A luminous veil in front of our eyes

“Ok” I said
But hesitated just the same
Glimmers of uncertainty
Here and there
“I am ready
I trust you”

“I am ready
I trust you”
