The Journey

 

The Journey

Upon this Mountain’s edge serene
Overlooking the view of a span of life
Fear not the fall sit close to the edge
For the view is not what It seems
The pains, and the glory, and the undreampt strife
The regrets, the mask, the sincere pledge
As the wind carries passing dreams
This too shall pass away

As the sunset of Promise sets to night
O’er the Horizon of what may come
Fear not the cold of Night’s abyss
Look to the knowing of a coming light
Reasons change, another day done
As if to awaken an enlightened kiss
This too shall pass away

A spark of divine perfection
From the womb, to a weathered age
That takes upon itself a firey blaze
Destined to be the great reflection
Pressing thoughts of peace and rage
Transcending self, the resurrection
This too shall pass away

Stand from the edge and turn [to pray]
Look for the path that leads back down
With thanks, take steps, love is near
Freedom unchained, will of pride broken
Awaiting you to change the frown
Come back to Center, the now, the here
The word of breath upon you spoken
This too shall pass away

Spells nor chants from all of lore
Canst not untie what you yourself bind
Lest you yourself untie each bow
That wraps the wounded view of self
And turn from the old, embracing more
In this that Love and peace you’ll find
Be here now, just let it, let it flow
This too shall pass away

And whence you lastly seek no more
Therein the droplets of rainbow’s storm
Those winds shall settle, a cosmic trance
The smile unable to match the joy
That pain inside, no longer sore
Drowning no more, the heart twas torn
Singing you to a new found dance

And though this too shall pass away
Giving fret to new things denied
Relax, let go, give in to swoon
Grace doth walk at your side
Carrying you throughout each night
Till the setting of the light of Moon
Births the rising, a rebuilt pride
Lest you find yourself, once again
Upon this Mountain’s edge serene
Overlooking the view of a span of life
