Voyage of the Soul: My DMT Adventure

“What’s the meaning of life?” Is a question we ask,

But finding the answer is no simple task.

Everyone’s here for a reason on our great Mother Earth,

Until the day they die and from the moment of birth.

 

This is the story of a journey I took,

That forever changed for me how the universe looked.

My entire concept of this physical world,

Was shattered while I saw infinity unfurled.

 

It all starts with the chemical known as DMT,

I had heard rumors that it could set your soul free.

Needless to say it had my intrigue,

I’d tried LSD and Psilocybin, but this was in a different league.

 

I did some research and learned that you can smoke it,

That apparently was the easiest way to invoke it.

By chance DMT had found me a few weeks later,

And left a huge dent in my soul like a crater.

 

I had a glass pipe and the DMT at hand,

It was a fine beige powder that resembled coarse sand.

I packed the pipe full and took a big hit,

Held it in tight and leaned back to sit.

 

The first thing I noticed was the room got real blurry,

And everything started to fade black in a hurry.

Anxiety kicked in, and my nerves were full blast,

I had no idea how long this feeling would last.

 

I closed my eyes, and stared into a dazzling black,

And I had the sensation of someone standing behind my back.

I suddenly felt a calm like I’d never thought life could bring,

And whispered from behind were three words: “This, is everything…”

 

At the exact second the words had finished being spoken,

The universe crumbled and reality was broken.

My soul left my body and was catapulted above,

To a place that transcends time, and inundated with love.

 

I soared through a tornado made of vibrantly stained glass,

The pure energy was overwhelming and moved through me quite fast.

I traveled into infinity through all its patterned veils,

A kaleidoscopic carnival full of intergalactic trails.

 

Glorious music engulfed me dressed as ornately woven ribbons,

It’s the most profound experience that I had ever been given.

 

Helping guide my journey were omniscient entities of light,

Who led me through this astounding matrix of delight!

Their intense embrace of loving energy I can’t begin to explain,

It’s a place that entirely dissolved away all sadness or pain.

 

There’s no linearity of time, nor concept of “self,”

Earth was temporarily placed on hold up high on a shelf.

I inhabited the deepest recesses of my brain,

I experienced my sub consciousness on a multi-dimensional plane.

 

I surpassed a wall of brilliantly interwoven neon tape,

And entered a cathedral expanse divinely infinite in scape.

The Godhead of eternity was the place that I was in,

A realm of unimaginable light and power where our souls begin.

 

To me, this was absolute proof there’s a world beyond ours,

Way outside our galaxy, and light-years beyond the stars.

 

After my journey, my life was a new leaf that had turned,

I spent weeks thinking about all the things I had learned.

My new knowledge of existence was the only thing that mattered,

When the world was reassembled after my ego was shattered.

 

Now I no longer fear death, even if I try,

For I know deep in my heart that our spirits never die.

Yes, we’ll shed this mortal coil in which we all reside,

But our soul’s energy will live forever on life’s epic ride.
