Journey To Ourselves

Journey to ourselves
Like a journey to find ourselves and inner source 
finding friends along the way 
to find the selfless courage and strength to be 
in this light of day 

Between the worlds of good and bad 
beyond what was and is to be 
to transcend individual indifference and leave 
control at bay 

Within the fantasy of a dream 
garden mazes and costume stages 
come and join life’s circle 

Where form disassembles and distractions 
fade away 
come occupy this space within 
the place of mind to be 

Where boundaries fade and melt away 
and foreground becomes a figure 
of a universe in a grain of sand or seed 
come and occupy this place 

Where all are free to share 
and become the change we seek 
in which the inner child speaks 
come enter the circle 

Where they lend a hand and pull you up 
and let you live and be 
where freedom is true and things are fair 
and justice is defined in our daily deeds
