Going In Within

Oft in the still of the dark unforgiving night We do wake up trembling with remorse Ego borne ferality cause of our plight Consciousness correction the only recourse Hardwired and left brained we make a list Of inner urgings resulting in contraction Habit borne patterns that insistently persist Deep gloom shrouding our innate elation What we see is that all fears mirror desire Being two sides of coin called attachment Anchoring our attention in delusion ego sires Holding us thus captive in discontentment Looking at our dilemma in spiralling fears We begin by accepting reality as it is Thus resisting not negativity ego spears We exit the game of solving quiz after quiz Rotating polarity of attention effortlessly We go in within into our heart centre Choosing to listen to conscience intently Within the void of emptiness bliss enters Thus it is not the type of fear but fear itself Mirroring desires amidst external illusions Blocking connection of lower mind with Self Joy ignition rekindled in stillness of meditation 30-October-2020

What a wonderful, deep, rich, poetic expression of inner reflections, Unseeking Seeker. Though our own fears can hold us back.. we need to exercise self-initiative to reap rewards. Beautiful! Congratulations for your excellent win in Chantelle's contest.. ~Susan
