Held hopeless by my past
Everything is struggle
Each breath a labor
Each thought a thorn

And yet I endure
Underneath it all
I am stronger
A survivor

Somewhere deep down
I know
This too shall pass

The Collision

Several key ideas collide
fracturing
As the concepts crumble
Something new is born

Bright and shiny
Lit from within
A gift
To light the way

Blossoms

A flowering of consciousness
Which direction will it grow
How many blossoms
Capturing the light
Sharing the beauty
For all to see

The Mind

If the function of the mind
is to create story
Then why do so many
attempt to use it
To discern truth

This may be a little controversial

Moments Like These

Moments like these
When my mind opens
Ideas range free
Anything goes
Everything is possible

Casting off the anchors of my past
I let the wind take me
whither it will
Me at the bow
Eager to discover new lands

Knowing

Knowing the unknowable
A paradox of responsibility

Moving forward
   step by step
Finding the flow
   in each moment
A breath
   and gratitude
The fundamentals

Choice is my power
To shape the world

Graduated Steps

In the void
I see
Graduated steps
From every direction
Rising up to me

Why does it seem
I am
At the center of
This universe

The echo chamber of
My mind
Operates
On this premise

My soul
Rejects the idea
And searches for
The holistic view
