One Path

One Path.
Tiny feet paddle through troubled waters and each
Tear of wrong falls as wax into a glass of survival,
And a candle shows the way.
An eternal flame brings Wisdom and Discernment
To hungry eyes, a two edged sword that illuminates
The true spirit's reflection from behind the mask of
Flesh, and from the knowledge of darkness that
Which claims to walk in light is revealed as darkness,
And the pain of the cut of the sword is felt as sorrow
Wishing sometimes for blindness, for the comfort
Of not being able to truly see!
For maturity now has no choice and seeks peace in
Taking the mind to pastures of milk and honey that
Will give the Soul rest.
The flame is eternal and the path is chosen, the
Temptation is the ease of which other footsteps
Appear to
Walk their own paths, and though the paths may
Cross for a few steps the flame guides these footsteps
To only one path.
Flesh weakens and footsteps become heavier and more
Deliberate, the heart is heavy with the knowledge and
Insight.
Tiny feet approach the lych gate as they turn to the final
Path, flesh unburdened,darkness falls into the shadows
And the spirit is free!
