Children of Love

					A nightingale 
					touches its nest
					hoping to sing
					as if its home 
					were an 
					endless river 
					of renewal 
					that knew 
					no vain. 

Who will come 
after him?
	Who sings 
	the shadow 
	of his future?
		Peeking are his 
		hidden passions
		that sprout
		with his song. 

The nightingale 
has forgotten 
how to live 
in freedom:
			How can 
			one love?
			The only answer 
			is silent; set 
			by example.

Profound knowledge 
can be written in trees
but those can be set in fire; 
so how can you speak 
without imposing?

The children of love
know what the adult
has forgotten;
			only those young 
			within their nest
			can fly into their
			inner most depth.

		Fly… 

Don't be shy; 
			you learned 
			by example.
You change 
by setting a 
new life
		within, 
				aware,
						fly. 
Sometimes, we get so accustomed to the past ways that seem to work that we cannot accept the fact that those old ways are in fact creating more frustration than release of your inner self. Being a child of love means to be willing to go back to those days when all that mattered was to feel alive, and not to have money on the bank. Fulfillment is something deeper, and only those who return to their inner hearts of innocence can feel the passion waiting to be relived.

    it’s true, we forget … and we start giving more value to things that come and go so easy… but that’s because everybody starts making us as we grow up… to be like them, to fill their expectations…

    thanks to remind us that… to be children of love

      The “adult” attitude is that which argues we should do what “they” say is right. However, who is “they”?

      It is a collective association of people who have a common set of values. They might or even not follow those set of rules, but they argue we should follow them because they are an authority figure within a structure of social security. The problem is not the authority figure itself but that they have a double standard. They create rules, but those rules does not apply to them as they are “the ones who established them”. What is going on in our society that we ignore those double standards?

      Perhaps we need to grow up means, and that means: To be responsible by ourselves of ourselves, but never losing that inner child that knows how to love and to manifest itself as purity and innocence.

      Those who preach forget sometimes even what does being responsible of our actions means. What do you think being responsible means?
