Finding my Humanity 

By Liam

To be human is to carry both light and shadow,

to walk the trembling bridge between longing for and belonging to,

to listen to the hush of the soul’s sensitive river

as it constantly calls you home to yourself.

You are not here by accident.

You were dreamt into being

by a love ancient and unbroken,

a whisper woven into the great silence of the universe

before the first dawn unfolded.

Within you, is the ache of wonder,

Is the tender sorrow of passing time,

Is the pulse of joy rising unexpected

like birdsong after spring rain.

Do not rush this becoming.

Let the unseen hands of grace shape you,

let your losses soften into wisdom,

let love carve its name upon your days and nights.

For to be human is to be broken and to heal,

to stumble and to rise,

to search for meaning in these quiet hours

and find, in the end,

that you were held all along

By Love.

When I Wait

by Liam

When I wait

The dawn will turn to day,

Suspicion will go away,

You will be here to stay.

When I wait

The rose will share its scent,

The snow will begin to melt,

You will feel what I have felt.

When I wait

Your moments, will pass,

So too our memories of the past,

You will lose your mask.

When I wait

The sails will fill the sea,

All time will go still in me,

You will feel truth and see.

When I wait

Your silence will awake,

Your soul will in you shake,

Your love will in me take.

When I wait

The night, too, turns to light,

Our hearts for to unite.

Become stars burning bright.

Let Light find You

by Liam

When you return to that cliff of sorrow,

Where the weight of memory binds you fast,

Be not hardened by its presence

Nor made small beneath its shadow.

For even the fiercest stone will yield

To the quiet persistence of love.

It does not shatter by force or will,

But by the gentle patience of loves light

Seeping through each silent fracture,

Softening the edges, loosening the hold.

You may trust the grace of breaking,

As it moves unseen through the cracks,

Making a passage where none was before,

Calling you go beyond the prison of pain,

Into the wide, bright fields of your becoming…

Free.

“Beautiful Is the Moment You Decide to Be Yourself”

by liam

How soft this waking dawn upon your face,

As indecision melts like mist upon the sea.

No need for masks, no need for borrowed grace,

For in your soul, your truth longs to feel free.

A childhood told you who  to be,

That script composed by others not meant for yours.

Yet in one truth, you claim your liberty,

And step beyond those old outdated doors.

Oh, what a light—a heart unchained, awake!

No longer lost in shadows of disguise.

The stars rejoice, the very heavens shake,

And courage lights the fire in your eyes.

This rarest beauty blooms in those who see,

Themselves as whole, as they were meant to be.

Poem: Paradise 

by Liam 

The cherry, picked and eaten,

The day, so ripe and blue.

Your lips, they shine like deep red wine—

I laugh, and so do you.

As wild and sweet, the berry,

The buzz of bees—they sing.

In the air, your golden hair

Shines with the bell that rings.

The fruit, the life, the loving,

The way our journey spins.

To that place in paradise,

The end, where this begins.

The sun, it sets so gently,

A warmth that fills the air.

The sky, it turns a soft pink hue,

And we know our love is there.

The stars begin to twinkle—

This night, it comes alive.

Wrapped in each other’s arms

Is PARADISE, where love will thrive.

Esteem

by Liam 

Esteem, is our quiet flame within,

It’s our souls beacon to the orchard of life

No worldly crown or fleeting prize

Can match this depth where worth resides.

It’s not forged by others’ gaze,

Nor born of fleeting, hollow praise.

But rises steady, soft, and true,

In the quiet work our hearts too do.

So honor true the light you share,

Your worth becomes the flame you bare.

It blunts the edges of your doubt,

Transforms the fear that keeps you out.

Esteem is not a thing you beg or borrow,

Nor the echo of your sorrow,

Take steps to grow, to rise, to fly,

For these dreams, open wide your eyes,

Nurture, care, your gift of worth,

The seed from which you grew at birth.

For only in its sacred fair,

Can your soul unfold and fully dare.

To be aware, to be aware.

Molecularity

by Liam

Peace is an ocean, and conversation its river.

So, when looking for silence,

Leave the splash and bubble of the stream.

Step down to the seashore,

Breathe in…

It’s not the crunch of pebbles, nor the crash of waves;

It’s the molecularity that quietens me,

The salty mist that engulfs my imagination,

The unimaginably small particles of self-awareness

Condensing in my mind.

Creation…

A clear, shining drop awakens,

Clinging precariously to consciousness.

Within it swims the

Ocean we see;

Within it surges the ocean of me.

The Pilgrim’s Blessing

by Liam 

Once dust, now spirit,

Your breath is light, your essence free.

From the immortal place unknowingly,

You rise;

Now too, to taste eternity.

Once ignorant, now wise,

Your heart has learnt what eyes couldn’t see.

This journey of a thousand steps

Brings meaning to the mind in me.

Who ever led you through the dark,

Through storms that bent the strongest tree,

Will guide you further, step by step,

To find far shores of eternity.

Let joy become your steady flame,

And courage, your unfaltering guide.

For every twisting of your path

Leads life deeper into the wide, into the wide.

The tide of love, the tide of grace,

You walk through dusk with dawn in view.

Once dust, now spirit; once lost, now found

Reminds the pilgrim, we rise up on sacred ground.

Echo of Regret

by Liam 

I walk the path I walked before,

I walk the path I walk once more.

The same old stones, the same old trees,

The same old whispers on the breeze.

I chose, I chose, and now it stays,

The weight of nights, the cost of days.

A word unsaid, a step not taken,

A silence left, a bond forsaken.

It comes again, it comes to claim,

It calls my soul, it speaks my name.

I turn to right, but I forget

Regret, reflect, and still, regret.

The clock resets, the hour chimes,

I live the moment countless times.

I see the choice, I see it clear,

And yet I fail, year after year.

I walk the path I walked before,

I walk the path I’ll walk once more.

The circle turns, the echoes call,

Regret, regret, it holds us all.

Yet in the dark, a light is shown,

Redemption waits where seeds are thrown.

The Rise Within 

by Liam

You understand, you see me so clearly,

Though knowing, I’m not feeling:

The darkness, vast and unrelenting,

Its weight drawn inward, its chaos neigh.

Consumed, digested, and transformed by healing.

Then comes the light,

Gentle at first, like a dawning promise,

Then soaring,

a shimmering flight,

My soul is unbound in a new ascent,

Each moment seeds divine intent.

It is the smiling faces,

Yours radiant with hope, that welcome the turning,

The change, the challenge, the depth of becoming see.

Through dark’s consummation,

We gather these truths anew,

Weaving from the threads, a brighter Hugh.

Until I recognize 

It’s been here,

Quiet and patient, within me all along.

For every fall, the soul must rise,

Like dawns reclaiming sparkle in my eyes.
