Detached I had become
From all that surrounds me
Seeing things from a skewed and twisted perception
Seeing – but not through my own eyes
Focusing on nonsensical aspects
Letting the truth slip away
Allowing myself to free fall
Because of it
Then the long dark cloud blew in
Forever looming – blocking out the light
All light – leaving an abyss of blackest pitch
Bent on destruction and slow painful consumption
Finding myself once more at the threshold
Not heaven’s pearly gates
Nor hell’s flaming lakes
Simply death – nothing more
ENTRY DENIED
Not once but thrice
Back into the corporeal world
Desperately I was pulled
By the very light I allowed to be diffused
Due to lack of faith, fear and doubt
The blinding light that never fades
Never goes out – transcends all
Time
Space
Worlds
The eternal light of LOVE
Borderless – all powerful – Infinite
Highlighting the subtle insignificance
Of so many aspects upon which we place importance
The scale by which all else should be measured
The one clear path to truth – understanding – happiness
The only guide I will ever again follow
Throughout the remainder of this life
Into my death – onto the next
