360 Degrees

360 Degrees

We try to comprehend our creator, 
For years on this our mind dwells
And yet we’ve barely touched the surface
Of even our own magnificent selves

To turn inwards is to find
A journey into the infinite
You open the doors one by one
’til you see that you are the light

But this journey, my dear one
Isn’t possible without truth
Because they lead you astray, you know
All the lies we use to soothe

And they’re a whirl, they are
It starts with the little things
But soon we know not who we are,
We lose track of the joys we bring

The truth, it will but reveal
The magic, the glory of you
And you will see beyond that, 
The light in everyone else too

I wish for you the heart of a warrior, 
The vision of a seer, 
The freedom of an artist, and 
The serenity of a saint.

But more than anything else, I wish 
For you to open up to truth, 
That you seek, that you find
The brilliance that is truly you.
