When I realize the limit of the night
Haunted by heaviness – thoughts a-daunting
Have I begun to take mighty flight?
Oh, in all things; do I know this Meaning?
***
When I acknowledge the impunity of this body
The weakness of failing and falling
Somewhere in the middle of all this; an identity
Have I recognised myself as this Being?
***
When I lose the backbones of my comfort
And wake up to a Maturity I sought to find
Will I ignore this responsibility heard;
Or rise up to the challenge that is now mine?
***
When I finally admit to being fearful,
Do they scorn and mock behind vivid faces;
Or shall I not ever cry out loud a fool
And surrender - keep silent; secretive; a-dazes?
***
Truly no answers doth satisfy any lament
Despite any conclusion, I lay still confused
Neither acceptance here, a choice hence
Nor patience at all; until I am finally mused.
