Karmic Ties

Earth’s ride is short and bitter-sweet Each role is played until complete Time and again each life is born Twined together with love and scorn Deception soaked in a pool of emotion True self cloaked with human notions Lessons learned lessons failed Karmic ties are deeply veiled Layers of attachments that remain Virtue and vice is all that’s gained Light and darkness in a maze A thread of hope will diminish the haze Truth, compassion and tolerance shine A golden light to help one find The way back home, the true wealth Unveil the nature of true-self
