My unity alive at birth,
Flew away or hides from view.
Since,I have splintered flailed accursed,
Disparity in seeking self embued.
Redefining is not the way,
Or so it seldom seems to be.
Yet know the lessons I must learn,
Define my soul's true destiny.
Alone..., so lost in hyperbole.
Oft losing ground in my quest.
Seeking the essence of my soul,
my true companion of happiness.
Sometimes I see you in my eyes,
In reflection of the mirror.
And know in trust we'll meld in time,
And that you've always been right here.
For you my self complete the me,
and nirvana is our own true destiny.

Touches on much about how we relate (or Not) to
ourselves. Too often, we fail to hear that inner
voice, the essence of us, pleading to be seen.
