The Maze Runner

In the maze of thought 
Your heart leads the way

But when all goes astray
You’re trapped inside 

There is nowhere to run
From the truth in the light 

Your deepest fear 
Is wanting people near

You deepest desire 
Is for others to admire

Your deepest flaws
Seem perfect to me

Leading the way 
To what you cannot see

The Transcender

Restricting is the human form
Trying to escape the norm

Conflicting thoughts cross by
There is no you and I

Everything we build
Is surely taken down

Anyone we ever meet
Will perish under our feet

Not fond of this human form
I would like to push the norm

Transcending into infinite space
Leaving me with many ways

When unity sets in
No longer trapped in skin

Nighttime Reflections 6/4

Perfume made of toxins
Indulging in cheap wine
Consuming endless gossip
The opposite of divine

Having meaningless encounters.
Doctors prescribing death sentences.
Politicians tricking and dividing us.
Broken psychiatrists becoming your life coach.
Thinking for oneself is considered wrong.
What will our world become?

The one thing we sincerely desire
But never truly get
Is interconnecting with others
Beyond boundaries of life and death

Can you perceive the lost souls wandering around?
They appear trapped in a vacuum void of light and sound.

Craving authenticity and a sense of self
But being cut off from the inner
Erodes their mental health.

Trapped inside our minds
Repressing the way to our heart
How to begin without a start

While refusing to embrace the divine inside
We are slowly suffocating our light

Then I woke up from the dream.

Never did it seem
So clear and bright
Surrendering without a fight

When I ceased to exist
I was freed from fear
The light was whispering in my ear

Inviting me to come near
It is the ultimate source of life
Nourishing my infinite dive

I am ascending to meet my maker
Unity with all that ever was or will be

Dropping one last final tear
Before my ultimate disappear

The Caterpillar

You are a butterfly in disguise
A caterpillar yet to rise

A source of infinite divine
I yearn to call you mine

With every gaze into your eyes
My craving is to see you rise

When I hold your hand
I can suddenly comprehend

What it means to be alive
Witnessing you thrive

Looking in your starry eyes
Witnessing your true soul rise
Endless streams of butterflies

Tamed by reason and thought
Leaving me this broken heart

The entropy sets in
I’m crawling in my skin

Dreaming how it all could be
Forever bonded you and me

In a place beyond space and time
Not confined by rules and rhyme

The Paradox

That day in the forest
Marked the first time

Feeling your true energy
Intertwined with mine 

Pushing back the urge 
To pull you close to me

Like a quantum forcefield
You were calling me

My heart is yearning
For the energy you provide

Your free and boundless spirit 
My equal in disguise 

Trapped beneath the surface 
Distinctly recognized 

We were brought together
In this human life

Your sincerity is sweet
Making the paradox complete
