I Want To Live

Contributed by solnubis on Monday, 23rd August 2004 @ 12:24:13 PM in AEST
Topic: InspirationalPoems

I feel at times that I have been frozen in time.
In order to reach my goal,
I have to chip away at the ice.
Even under the beating sun,
I have to work the chisel to the bone.
To break the frozen obstacle,
that embraces my whole being.
I have to do this carefully and
piece by piece. Taking notice
that the layers do not chip away
too quickly, leaving the area bare and raw.

However knowing that in order
to become free, I have to
go through this course of action.
It is also reminding myself that,
I do not need to do this mission on my own.
I can reach out for help at any time.

Yes it is very scary to face
these bare walls, but one
that I am ready to do.
It may take many months for
this wall of frozen matter to
come down but it will in time.

So as it does I will feel the
warmth of my emotions flowing
out freely from my inner self.
So that I may recognize the beauty
from within.

Very inspiring poem. to find the way of peace is the way of one, the way of one is the absense of all desires and to be one with nature, this is where you'll find true self where all becomes as one, you understand...=)
