In Search of Something Else
The love that passed you by
is not your source of misery
Nor the paths you could not try
that cause you to be unhappy
Neither parties that you've missed
Nor the ones you've never kissed
No self imposed, failed test
could yield such profound unrest.
They're not the foundation of your stinging pain
Nor the sorrows tallied in your sullen ledgermain
For in truth, a deeper reality and beyond exists
In this space here, dwells peace and serenity persists
Relax into yourself for it's near as can be
When all is removed then what do we see?
The source is never separate and never can be far
How could it be, it's in fact who you are.
Abandon memories of a self and all of its stories
Jettison your deeds, your image, your mind, your glories.
This place, above all, is silent and is still
Leave at the door, all false masks and your will.
Beyond the threshold --all that which is true
Discover here that which is simply, wholly, you.
A you unbounded vast and fully free
A you, that is we, expressed as mystery
