Why Does Love Hurt so Bad

Why is it, love hurts so bad?

Why is it that it can leave one feeling so sad?

Why do we cry in such horrid pain?

Why do the tears fall like rain?

Who is it that drops me to my knees?

For whom is it that we cry our pleas?

Is it for the one that left of feeling so sad and alone?

Or is it for someone else, to us, that is unknown?

No matter what you think we know it is wrong

Everything in this world for which we long

Is only to please our self and no other

And this brings us great pain as we use our brothers

Even when I look in your eyes

And I see how I want to use you with all of my lies

Oh my G-d this brings me such pain and sorrow

Leaving me wishing that there was no tomorrow

How can we break free from this egoistic plan?

How can I stand up with courage to stand?

Against the Pharaoh who controls all

Who will back me when I assuredly fall?

It is only between us, yes you and me

That we can ever truly see

That there is only one place to be

Connected to each other and truly free

I love you all

Tears of Pain

Tears of Pain

As the tears roll down my pain riddled face

And the pain in my heart removes me from your grace

As I plea and cry for the suffering to end

It is only then I truly begin

To see what and where my work lye’s

Not in the earth below or up in the sky’s

But deep within that very pain

As I look at it not in vain

But truly discern as to where it came from

You see I know it’s not the love that has left me feeling numb

But it is that I do not yearn for your grace

And in fear I search for your face

And then like a hammer hitting me hard on the head

I realize it is the connection to my brothers I need instead

That only through this connection can I reveal this force

The force of nature straight from the source

So please as I wipe the tears away

Come and connect so we all can pray

Each for the other as we reveal our task

Once and for all removing our masks

Let us sing and rejoice in the travels ahead

As this ego is corrected not dead

I love you all as you all well know

So come sing, laugh and let’s get on with this show

My tears of pain are truly for us all

I love you all

Anticipation

Anticipation

What is this feeling we feel

When nothing around us any longer seems real

When all our hopes and dreams collide

As all that we work towards just seems to subside

How do we come to that place we don’t know?

How do we find a way to our brothers to show?

Love of friends, as we pick up the pace

Love for each other as we seek his grace

The feelings of impatience that overwhelms

As we do our work to reveal the higher realms

The feelings as if we are late for this date

A date we all have with this eternal fate

So as we gather for the lessons of the Zohar

Let us not forget whether we are near or far

That it is within us each and every one

That we see these things as happening as it has begun

Together we must connect to fix what is broke

As the light hits the vessel in one mighty stroke

Together we will connect and be one for all to see

Together you see is what we all will be

I love you all my brothers and sisters
