Crossroads

I’ve arrived to an intersection,

the long journey inward,

expecting nothing but silence

to neutralize the recent events.

I comprehend that knowing means nothing

and the ego takes care of the rest

with its nagging chit-chat

covering the path with doubt and negativity.

The gibberish that arrives must be exterminated

so I can continue traveling down the road

aligning self to spirit,

wishes to dreams,

grace to awareness.

The voices have subsided.

I am searching for the calmness

of faith and blessings

as hope floats upward.

Life is lived with love,

the inward version of infinite wisdom,

and I vast in the light

of a new beginning and the distant road

allowing the Divine to lead the way.
