labyrinth



we weave our way
through a labyrinth of delusion
only to find that our thinking
has led us astray,
it is then
in that very moment
we see the ineffable truth
manifest
in the rising sun
or a floating cloud
or even a busy moment
on our way to start the day.
why is this so difficult,
when life and existence
is so simple?
it is because we love
our stories
and our opinions
and our logic
and our accomplishments
and our life
that we delude ourselves
into thinking we are living.
take back your life
and see this moment
outside of thought,
outside of time
and outside of space,
then what is left
is the only reality
we will ever know.
