In Search of Meditation

Meditation is the key that opens the soul To push out all thought and sound the goal To block all but your breath is the start Or concentrate on the beat of your heart If the noises and all sound will not cease Your inner space cannot bring you peace You must find the zone, your empty space Be able to ignore the constant rat race Scholars say a mantra must be found If enlightenment is where you’re bound I sat down after shutting the door Searched for my mantra while on the floor With legs crossed, sat straight with poise And concentrated to block out all noise My search for a mantra brought me to tears For I could not get past my ringing ears!
