SamadhiMuse

         We each reflect ourselves
           and the others we care about.

         They become our hell and our salvation,
           all of our karma is delivered
         in the hands of our beloveds.

         Each subject to love and reflections
           in the pool of maya, ours.

         We all pause in our tunnels of time
           to witness our ends tied to our means.

         We each pause to count our successes
           against our failures.

                             Breaking thru
         I'm coming down again, I think
           to mellower times with school and Rose.
         I'm not so sharp at figuring it out anymore
           but my heart moves me just as well as my words used to
         when I thought I could out guess
           God and his plans.
         He is the consequence inherant in my acts,
           the events which follow my choice.
         He is there...more subtly than I could have believed
           behind my acts and choices, behind my rewards and pain.
         He matches my every act
           with justice and responsability
         He's predestined it to let me make my choices and find my way,
           by my own choice, to His plan and my own, the same.
         I can no more live without his love and my concience
           than I could bear my pain endlessly without my joy.
