looking up
when walking through my dream
it seems, that all I did was walk
I searched, had no idea what I was searching for
but on, and on I went
down corridors, and carpeted halls
even ran up broad marbled stairs
this is not my first time in the maze
sometimes it feels like I’m lost for days
it’s the past, it’s the present
yes I talk to people
I ask for directions,
I’m realizing now as I recount
this tale, no one ever says good day
not me, or anyone else I meet
we are all so busy, busy,busy
how can I be lost
I’m surrounded by people
yet I am on this endless search
I can’t find my “room” my private space
everything looks the same, each corridor
I find, has numbered doors,
1st, 2nd, 21st. floor it doesn’t matter
no door is mine, besides, I seem to have lost the key
what web have I created with my nattering mind
and multi tasked habits
oh please, why do I insist on constantly searching
when if only I would stop, just stop
and look up instead of rushing
from one place to another
looking up
I will see the sky, the Universe
and in the vastness of the Universe
my spirit will find peace
from the chattering of my mind
of daily matters that blind me
to the inner voice with me
that tells me, I need not search
I need not worry that I can’t get home
I am always home
God/Tao/Universe is always with me
I am never alone
I need only stop
and look up.
