Blank Slate

ul clean, a blank slate 
Take me to that place beyond pain and hate 
I hear death lightly rapping, knuckles at the door 
Use the key, set yourself free, so you can soar 

The ending is just a beginner 
For the lover of life's not a sinner 
Countless incarnations more to go 
For the soul to learn all it needs to know 

Like a window, wiped invisibly clear 
Such that flying birds can't even see 
Where there is no longer any separation 
All is one, no need for you and then me 

I see them crying from the parallel 
I'm right here with them, but they can't tell 
The five senses so limited 
Why so shocked over what was always temporary? 

Don't worry, I'll see you again soon 
Soul recognition, sure as a new moon 
And there we'll be, a brand new start 
Where only one can go with a child's heart

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
