The Path Out Is In



Turn your souls imaginations from avoiding to confronting
twisting thoughts which lead your life long pathway walk
and joust with each and every perceived nuance upon it
with the strength, and clarity of your gift of freewill.

Free your thoughts from the path of escaping life turn
upwards and onto the truth of the one pure light gaze
ever deeper into your own youthful fiery spirit capture
the grace of the truthful path of you own insight.

Free yourself; your soul wrought and perfect emotions
feel the passion filled spheres of the heavenly delight
within the inner being yet completely human minded and
cast away the shadows of this worlds life ending blight.

Embark on the new journey which asks of you unended bliss
walk eagerly upon the soul lit pathway into the world to
come; be not afraid to believe in the footworn safety of
the inward journey out towards your very first true home.
