A Journey to Joy
I walked the path, a common stride,
Through days half-seen, and truths half-spied.
A phantom self, I drifted through,
Unaware of skies so wide and blue.
Then, softly, like a morning gleam,
Awoke from life's unwitting dream,
A gentle stirring, deep and low,
A seed of knowing starts to grow.
A curtain lifted, thin and wide,
Revealing treasures deep inside.
No grander quest, no higher art,
Than knowing the rhythm of my own heart.
This inner landscape, vast and free,
Unveiled in conscious liberty.
The whispers of the soul made plain,
Washing away all transient pain.
Self-realized, I stand complete,
The bitter learned, the victory sweet.
No longer lost, no longer swayed,
By shadows where my spirit played.
Each inner conflict, now a guide,
No longer truths I need to hide.
I see the purpose in my scars,
Reflecting light like distant stars.
The tangled threads of what had been,
Now woven to a vibrant sheen.
This knowing deep, a steady hand,
A compass in an unknown land.
With every breath, a truth profound,
My knowing spirit firmly bound.
A quiet strength begins to bloom,
Dispelling doubt, dispelling gloom.
The world may shift, the currents bend,
But on myself, I now depend.
A steady compass, sharp and clear,
Dispelling doubt, dispelling fear.
For battles fought and wisdom won,
Beneath the ever-watching sun,
Have forged a peace, a knowing grace,
Reflected in my mindful pace.
This earth, this breath, this conscious start,
Confidence ignites within my heart.
To simply be, and know I am,
The truest joy, the ultimate calm.
For in this being, fully known,
A vibrant universe has grown.
A testament to life's design,
A joy that is profoundly mine.
