DEEP WITHIN MINE SELF LIES
PURPOSE
Deep Within Myself lies purpose The Light in Me Shines so bright Deep within me is focus
I am the lens my of my heart mind comprehends
Even through the deepest dark
Shallow waves momentum shifting blends as the title such
Unconscious bad laden stagnant vessels trying to breathe at naught
Fragrances being denied the breath of the fire has been doused
The cabbage is wilted and sourd there be no sauerkraut
And O' did I mention due to lack of attention I am being detained
Cloudburst gatherings the silver lining cracked not every drop of rain Falls circumspectively on the plains
My heart lungs breath
My soul sees
My arms and hands on praise
The light in me shines so bright
Deep within me focused
I am the lens of my heart's mind
Comprehends even in the deepest dark
I am of I am
Deep within myself I am purposed
