Dare you?
Hope, wish, pray – worthless words.
Who is there to answer you?
Seek
comfort in the present days. Look
Not to the future ways.
Let the mind’s eye cast you
free, allow the bird’s song
give you sweet release –
there might not be any future ease.
Seek answers from yourself within,
but must they be in shape of words?
Stops and signs and walls and blocks
will disappear when time draws near.
Give it time
Give it peace
Soon you will realise; hoping, wishing, praying
will not do.
Action must come from within you.
