Drawn to the quest for enlightenment
I have been found lost and wandering
Along the path of truth
Yes tis true, that I am but a fool
standing upon the shores of understanding.
Dipping my fingers in the calm of wisdom
just to watch as the droplets splash one upon the other.
Skipping stones of inquisition across the sea of knowledge
just to watch as the ripples form.
It is then that I often pause to wonder
at the effects of the words of a simple poet
upon the thoughts of a world blinded by it’s own self.
Indifferent to the wounds it has inflected upon itself,
and therefore left to suffer in ignorance yet once again.

Ok, made me cry with this one. You struck some raw nerves here my friend.
Your writes draw me right to the core, as always my pleasure to read this.
Hopes you are ok... it has been a long while.

Life is full of cycles, and this type is perhaps longer than the rest. I mean cycles that aren't always obvious where in your lifetime you make the same mistakes without realising and progressing. This can also apply to humankind.
But "humble" words can make a difference, even if it is only to jolt one person onto a different (and better) course. Words do matter and if they have done enough to change one person then it shows they are working. Is that not among the reasons why we are drawn to write and make ourselves heard?
Powerful words, I really liked this one.
Take care,
Dom |
