In never-ending circles,
My mind recycles
All that I have seen, heard, or remembered,
And keeps dying embers from flickering out,
Though ashes of doubt
Try to smother.
Through blinding tears,
I've studied for years
Seeking the truth of Another,
And yet, well I knew
That I'd never find Another
By using my mind.
I must open the door,
By hoping for more
Than Philosophy ever promised--
And though it be sin,
I must enter in
To my Kingdom,
My Soul's lonely core.
No one is with me on this sojourn,
And I must wait for my return--
If I conquer, I won't be alone,
For I will have conquered Another.
Deepening twilight soon becomes day,
But then I discover I've lost my way--
Choked by a jungle of human desires,
I must fight through
To renew Divine Fires.
Thoroughly tried,
My lonely heart cries
For pleasure, though ever so fleeting--
But valiant, resisting
All temptations of trysting,
My soul stands triumphantly bleeding!
I wait by a stream, as though in a dream,
Drinking eternity's wisdom--
Not from a book--this knowledge I took
Straight from the fount of reality.
In moments past, of love that could not last,
I saw glimpses of Another,
And now as I ponder, in awe-struck wonder,
I see--
The Other I'm seeking is Me!
Religion and Faith,
Philosophy safe,
Could not be the key--
Past vales of sin,
Triumphantly bringing back Me--
The Great I AM,
The Soul of Man,
Reigns ever Gloriously!
