    Beyond heaven
    there must be peace within
    as you close your eyes
    and dissolve your body
    in light and etheric energy.
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    Oh a beautiful image. This stanza made me feel at peace.
    There is energy in the words themselves.

    Your consciousness continues
    beyond material reality,
    embracing The Moon and Saturn,
    returning to the primordial
    unity, transcending time,
    space and desire.
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    I believe this stanza is about the afterlife and how we continue to live through our thoughts.

    She opened the gate with her soul ragged,
    thinking of stars and freedom.
    Alchemy and Astrology would explain her.
    She had three bodies and all of them were
    the individual and unique expression of God
    in her.
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    I love this stanza the most. The idea that this woman had faith in her. The three spirits - Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.

    She made a transition back to the light
    and had a chance, picking up her life
    again, learning the necessary
    to sustain herself for life and love
    never end.
    Never end.
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    At first I thought this may have been about the full afterlife. Then I thought maybe it is referring to a near death experience. She continues to think beyond Heaven but in the last stanza she comes back to the light picking up her life again. Reincarnation comes to mind as well.

    This is an awesome poem. I love it. It really has made me think of so many things, life after death etc.

    Well done Karla.

    This piece somehow gives me peace.
    Saturn and god are mentioned in this poem.
    I love both of them.

    This is my favorite stanza

    "She pierced the first veil
    when she fell from her pure depths,
    looking for something unwritten,
    unsaid."

    I'm fascinated by the flow of this poem as well as for the imagery.

    This poem is so intense and relatable. The fusion of the mind, body, heart and soul on a spree of self discovery and peace is enlivening. Very evocative and heart warming. I call this piece my idea of 'Triple R, Relax, Restore and Rejuvenate(r.r.r)', the whole body system of a being emotionally, physically and mentally needs to function with exciting moments . You always have strong messages to share to all. Thanks for that and i must hail the song that inspired this marvelous piece as a tribute. More ink to your pen, blessings to you. Bye :-).
