Step upon step
I climb away from the dead
Voices drift in and out of my the head
My whole body still feeling like lead
A little twitching
A little stretching
A little groaning
A little yawning
And immediately I hear it
Before I can even plant my feet
My heart takes to flight
And my whole body suddenly feels light
– I heard: –
“It’s a new day
To walk in the Way
Yesterday is gone
It’s victories and failures done”
– I said : –
Who am I?
What am I?
What do I know?
What can I do?
I don’t know any other world
Where I don’t feel walled
Where I don’t feel heavier and older
Carrying weights on my shoulder
The world outside is generous with sweet deceptions
The inside with sour addictions
And some are content living in the burnin heat, destructive passions
While the others in the dry cold, devoid of passions
Here, I am peacefully living
Life flowing in me like a spring
Morning-maker gives me reason to live a new day
Peace-giver saves me from needless pains all day
Call it an illusion
A dream that beats reality at every junction
A safe cocoon from any monsoon
All other elements in existence dance to it’s tune
Tribute, Mighty Gateman
Author and Weaver of man
Wise possessor of the universe
Keeper of this paradise
You love to the death
You keep from death
Help those who fall on you
You define power, life and what is true
It’s another day to be the fool and weakling
So I can be safe in your keeping
Living out vibrant by a sunsettybeach
While some prefer thirsty on a thunderstormy sea
