and lighten your load

and lighten your load

so many teachings
so many paths
that seeks a light
that we already have

yet we lack self trust
that we may achieve
our oneness of self
in which we all believe

so we seek out doctrines
and embrace new ideas
seeking unity in numbers
to hide from our fears

but there is a song playing
and all notes do rhyme
awaiting the pendulum’s strike
of the final note of time

where the veils of deceit
will vanish and burn
and we will come to know
the beauty soul yearns

for the journey of life
is within indeed
and the fruits of our harvest
is but our own seed

some call it karma
some call it fate
but destiny awaits you
and you won’t be late

so please share the goodness
from within your dear heart
embrace your inner child
and the divine he/she imparts

and i’ll see you soon
at the end of the road
let the world be loosed
and lighten your load
