Transform

A blinkered path 
Heart filled with dust 
Mind infused with memories from darkest of nights 
It hurts to be alive, and breathe with delight 
Once awoken, and felt so bright 
A distant memory, it feels to be alive 
To feel, to be, to laugh aloud 
What remains is a path uncertain with immense fog 
What I feel is a deep distance in my heart 
Alas, emerge the light of my soul
Can one, really awaken and see beyond this smog 
The soul may beckon, the mind is enslaved, and its body is deeply drenched and weak in pain  
As one continues to seek refuge in the darkest of lanes  
I may feel too much, or not at all
Both reside in the same misty space of my soul
The light and the dark, swirl in the same dimension 
One cannot transcend one side without the other in site 
Becoming a witness, to all of my tides 
Instead of fighting, I choose to sit still for a while 
Take a step inwards, and feel in to my heart
I let this tide sweep me far away, down in to the well of my heart 
Welcome the master, and bow to the eternal void
It’s here to show you your greatest of teachings
Are you taking notes or choosing to silence her instead?
For without her lessons, you’ll fail to reach beyond the stars
Leading to the world missing your bright sparky lights 
To illuminate the path for others to see 
What would this world be without your insights?
