U Turn

Facing myself,
and paths ahead.
Mask on a shelf,
old life is dead.

A brand new start,
begins right now.
To trust my heart,
becomes my vow.

Ran into change,
it crossed my way.
I felt so strange,
as ego swayed.

Warm breeze caressed,
my pale dull face.
I felt so blessed
with this embrace.

Where will I go?
What will life be?
Follow the flow,
that lives in me.

Finally free,
carry clear sight,
no guarantees,
but feel so bright.

Find Myself

A journey past where winds have blown,
each step I take, I must now own.
Distractions fade, ego has flown,
awareness travels through my bones.

A land as still as solid stone,
embrace my thoughts, my sacred zone.
Little old shack, beautiful throne,
holds so much more than what is shown.

A place to face every unknown,
to heal old pain, so tears are sewn.
The time is now, must not postpone,
answer my inner telephone.

A trip where guilts come to atone,
regrets all die, shame is outgrown.
All by myself, never alone,
reveals visions my soul has known.
