Echoing In The Night
To what do I owe the pleasure
Of an acquaintance from so far
The gifts of unknown prayers
Offered freely and so true
There is a strength that follows
In a line that leads so clear
It offers me solace
In a time that’s confused
The next step is known to me
But alludes me just the same
The process continues
There is no way of knowing
When I will awake
The dream asked me to remember
Not to be complacent
With it came some peace
As well as a need to question
As much as I know
I feel I know nothing just the same
The answers must be in reach
They vibrate in my heart
But will not speak
Actions seem to be missing
Days lead to weeks
To months
To years
There is something more
I want to touch it
Feel it
Live it
There is a sadness in the surroundings
Shut down from life
Hiding in the darkness
I understand it
But it is not my way
Choices made are done and over
New choices are at bay
Sailing with the current
Please set me free
There is a world to see
To prepare
Love to experience
Simple things to discover
Send me a passage
Nothing too obscure
Truth shining bright like lightening
Illuminating the way
I know the path is rarely used
Perhaps hidden in the brush
But I know I can find it
Do not wish me luck
For it is not luck that go me here
Not luck that will carry me forward
But love, truth and prayers
Echoing in the night
