B'H

Pleasurable thirst
When the longing
Is a blessing
Not a curse

Unmeasurable heights
When a soul
Leaving
Celebrates the life

Send the mother bird
Out of kindness
Before the eggs
Are procured

One nation rises
When another one falls
When one sends rockets
The roles are reversed

Protection from on high
Miracles
And wonders
No one can deny

It's a lot to do
But there is
A lot of us
And a lot of you

Am I the only one seeing this
The Divine embedded
In everything, even this
Seemingly tragic
Is teeming with magic
I'm not being optimistic
This is me as a realist
Why am I enjoying
What seems like not niceness
Maybe because it brings
The thirst to excited
I'm not being dark
I'm being farsighted
Because the longing is worth it
When we are united

And I don't want to diminish
The pain and the anguish
I just want to welcome
The change and amendments
Just wanted to mention
That there is tremendous
Even in separation
We are connected

Let's be dedicated
The hate, let's eradicate it
Let's recalibrate it
And realize
It was designed for refinement
And rearrangement
The elevation
Is also drawing inspiration
So it brings down from on high
As it lifts diamonds
From the pavement

To attain a level
Beyond intellect, intellectually
To understand the paradox
Actually, not just conceptually

Pleasurable thirst
Because it means
There is water
On Earth

And striving for finding
The source
When you know it exists
Is an imperative
Spirited
