My Poem

Gently I walk through this world so strange
Though it's certainty I seek I see only change
Who am I really? Can this place be real?
Is there more to my existence? Can I trust what I feel?

Strange images before me appear
Is this my reality? Is it really that clear?
This body I have it seems to be me
If it is then how can I ever be free?

Am I a slave to my senses? Must I suffer and die?
Is there a point to my existence? Should I even ask why?
These senses I have do they tell me the truth?
They are old and fading is there a fountain of youth?

I live with myself, but what do I know?
When this body lays down where will I go?
Is there more to me or is this all there is?
What do I do here? Is this a quiz?

Do I have an identity aside from this form?
Am I stuck in a boat lost in a storm?
It's guidance I seek, but whom can I trust?
These people I see will also turn to dust

One thing is clear this cannot last long
My time here is brief soon I'll be gone
They say we live on after these bodies have failed
They say there is hope when the mystery is unveiled

For my part I shall not be afraid
I will do no harm my debts will be paid
On the fear of the unknown I shall not dwell
What destiny holds I soon will know well

Though this place of shadows cannot be my home
I shall know only love wherever I roam
Though wisdom I lack I will help those I can
One day perhaps I will know who I am

That is great!!

I really like it.

I'm moving this to the Art, Music & Poems section so it won't get lost.

Thanks, I'm glad you appreciate it.

I think 50 years old is a common age to finally be able to get past ego. We cannot pretend. It has to be truth. That takes a long time because we do not get help. We spend so much time teaching ourselves the wrong way.

That is why I wrote my books. It is certainly true that only a couple of percent will get it right, but my books establish a situation where others will take my efforts and move forward...resulting in an effect upon all of humanity.

Even near death experiences don't change who we are. The ego has complete and total control. One of the "locks" the ego has on us is by way of emotion. This leads to addictions.

Assumptions and excuses are some of the most common addictions we have. The truth is not going to be easy to grasp, and even harder to put into action. It will ask you to change who you are by way of actions...which means you will have to most likely suffer.

Suffering is one of the most important tools we have...as it does not allow us to pretend. It causes us to adjust our priorities. Suffering may be the only thing that can get us to say no to our addictions.

This is quite beautiful
