The Awakening

I.

                              As awareness and desires awaken within,

         We grow fearful, confused, chagrin.

For thoughts we have, do arise,

         Contradict those we hold as truth in our eyes.

Waking each day with body and mind,

         fulfilling our purpose of physical kind.

Casting aside, hiding from truth,

         continually searching for the fountain of youth.

Though deep inside, an urge, burning desire,

         to go forth, expand, experience and inspire.

Yet, we sleep as we wake, dream as we create,

         life overwhelmed, human condition, we think,

         a despairing state.

II.

                  As awareness and desires awaken within,

         new thoughts and energy do begin.

Going beyond known reality and knowledge of mind,

         we seek and explore, experience and find.

Belief in self, consciousness and human race,

         An existence where all is love and embrace.
