Spinning Our Wheels

Like a whirl wind of distruction

All you have held in anticipation

flying by you in a mess of attachment

unable to grasp

 

The scene is familiar

Only all is gone

You sink to the bottom of the ocean

awaiting your last sufficating breath

With the weight of the depth crushing you with every darkening thought

With your lights going out one by one

 

suddenly you awake and realize that you are still alive

what should have killed you

only left you in a foreign lonely place

within the dark depth of the trenches

blind to direction with no will power

you begin to see there is a light

The light you understand to be you

 

You begin to see the life around you 

Only you don't feel your place in it

How did I get here?

How do I begin again?

How do I let go?

 

What seems like your death is seeded with hope and glory

The light that is in you wants you to live

wants you to see

you must have faith that you are rising to the surface

when you begin to see the glow coming from the surface

you begin to see direction

Courage then perpells you

 

When you reach the surface

you must swim toward shore

You have been shown the light

the light that holds you in purpose

when you reach the sands

you must choose a direction

you can't live in the sands of a ever rising tide

follow the signs

a place for you still exist

Faith is now your guiding force
