The Path

A journey takes you back
To the beginning of self
The original plans and possibilities
Saying farewell to a tired lie

A lie you tell yourself

Searching for the elusive answer
Keys to the depth of mind
Drive to the end to find
A reason to go on

How the desolate waste beckons

All is dead beyond thought of life
Weary eyes look at the pitiless sun
A fearsome silence reigns
The quiet storm brewing underneath

Keep on treading the tiresome path

Leave the transient world behind
Tempted by false hopes
Illusions and imperfections brought with
As baggage to weigh you down

The constant journey of change goes on

(inspired by 'From Darkness to Light' by Jiddu Krishnamurti)
