met I see the lies of my life
projecting onto me the struggle
each must face to find the freedom
to release.
It is time to fortify the fingers of
fate and let loose the force held in
bondage of expectation, restrained
expression reaching for peace.
Feeling the presence of a billion
souls bound by their own belief,
aching for a breath of air not
fouled, to drink the water of truth.
Found remnants of a dream long
dispersed, wanting more while
taking less, enslaved by
attachment to that which
cannot be obtained.
This is good. Love the line 'water of truth' and the last stanza.

the first two lines are particularly striking
ReplyDeleteSuch attempts should be made more often! I like this very much, 'wanting more but taking less' is especially thought-provoking.
