I am that
Which I was meant to be
Only
I don’t believe
My truth
I try to find reasons
To be more
Than I am meant to be
Negating myself
And all that I
Have achieved
If I could only
See myself
In my True Light
Then
Maybe I could accept
All of me

What is it
That I find
Inside of myself
As I search
For the
Meaning of life
What emptiness
Evades me
And creates the illusion
Of true happiness
I know
That somewhere
Deep inside of myself
That there exists
A true joy
An authentic
Happiness
And
I just have to find it
Hidden
Amongst all the other
Angst

Big words
Make me feel like
I am hiding
From my truth
When we use big words
It tends to inflate the ego
And make us feel
Like we are saying more
Than we really are
So
I will stay with
Small words
And hope
That I
Will
Speak
My truth

What is life
If not a conglomerate
Of differences of being
What is life
If not a place of chaos
Where mind reigns
What is life
If not
A hurry scurry
Of useless endeavors
What is life
If not
A gathering
Of ignominious experiences
Meant to teach us
About
life

Home
A place where I can put my feet up
And try to figure out
Who I am
Home
In a body
That is neither here nor there
And yet
It keeps me
Where I am
Going
Body, mind, soul
Acting in unison
While
Crying for
Individuality
Which creates
Chaos
Trying to bring balance
And harmony
And peace
To
My life

Life ever present
Growing in inequity
Please come back to me
Shamai Feb 2019
I never know
Which way
My words
Are going to carry me
Will they speak of the present
Or of the past
Or of the
In-betweens
Of life
