Veil of Creation

This universe is trapped in time Tomorrow my past, still lost inside Each lesson something I have known Reminding myself where I will go Illusions of a dying man Striking the light, reflecting sand Again I crumble into pain Until I’m surrounded by this again Attract what I must now become The fate I resist, like the blinding sun Experience this life and death Duality’s doors are stealing my breath This earth a molecule of soul The galaxy spins from the blackest hole A universe beyond my mind Reflecting the passion that burns inside This universe is trapped in time I spiral once more from the darkest light Once more I realise I exist Creating the moments that lift the mist

Very nice Ian! I particularly enjoyed "a molecule of soul" Intersting juxtiposition between micro and macro universes. Light & Love Debbie Guzzi

Yes, I have felt this truth. Even a truth does not hold off the pain or remove it; sigh. Feel better, know there are loving hearts, know you help others. Light & Love Debbie Guzzi Happy Holy Days

hmmmmmmm very interesting! time is a construct of man. I'm trying to learn and it looks like you're ahead of me. Why capitalization without punctuation?
