#7: What Do I Want?

"What do I want?"

As easy as it may seem,

This question always hits me close.

Making me ponder way more than I like to admit.

But when I sink deep in

And go beyond the chatter of the mind

My inner voice, like an innocent child

Cries, "Let me just be ME"

The ME here is the puzzling part

I have hundreds of versions of it.

And all seems so real, so vibrant

That illusion becomes my daily reality.

I challenged my inner self,

To awaken the God within.

And from that lens and sense of grandeur

I sought the divine aspect I aspire to within.

The playfulness and candor

And the ability to flow.

Knowing all is taken care of

I am choosing to let go.

Excited to discover the Kingdom of God

As I shed my old self away

I know I'm creating space

For both God and me to be just arms away.
