providence leads to each oasis
love waters your heart and mind
once again strengthening your resolve.

ancient gateways through the mystery
-swing wide-open
and choices are to be made
-roads to journey onward
as the mystery gently unfolds
-ancient gateways close behind you.

I’m weary, tired, shadows near,  
But like the song, I’ll persevere.  
Sick of the struggle, longing for peace,  
Yet I’m still standing, my heart won’t cease.  

Though feeling done, there’s still a spark,  
You know I’ll rise, igniting the dark.  
With every challenge, I’ll find my way,  
Just like the lyrics, I’ll seize the day.

one spin of the Earth
half dark half light
half awake half asleep

the solitary speaks no words
going round and round the Sun
silence of the grave silence of the Earth.

Paradise, the only sane destination
the only true hope everything you do
takes you closer down the blessed road
on your earthly journey, to an eternal home.
