Look Within
Look within
It may be the only chance we have
to peer into, and to glance back
So, noting all around us,
this is of course the way,
All present moment sounds,
Observations taste and smell,
To learn this and then know it well,
The importance of keeping
man's constant bothering
mind at bay,
Necessary insight not withstanding
mindful of present inspiration
If too caught up in everything
we may lose sight of possible horizon
So remember this
And look within
That which naturally has inspired,
acquired empathy of our mind's eye
This the lesson from the elders
all our senses, notions and desire
Is it any wonder that we falter?
For certain man has lost his path
Perplexed and fixated on
persistent sin
sometimes gaining but often not,
Life is balance remember that
teaching this we gain a lot
Always better to look within
To listen to those who spoke,
of calm and lucid knowledge of
appeared to sleep yet they awoke
Inspire inside a native state
They told us time and time again
to..
look within, look within
