Now
An ominous saying
I have no future.
It is true you know.
For all the childhood dreams and desires,
for all the drive, ambition, search and wanting
time will come when there is no more..
No need to struggle or put forth efforts,
no desperation or arguing for rights and freedom,
no search for work or money or possession,
no more self seeking
only soul searching in the want to know, find God.
A longing and desire to be at peace with life
to know and recognize the inner, hidden heart
to accept its purpose,
to see the how and why of being,
the beginning and the end.
I have no future
in a sense no past,
no yesterdays or tomorrows.
only todays for my future
is this ever present now.
