INNER PEACE

Just beyond my grasp.

I remember how it felt

It was the absence of what I feel.

I am on a journey

But how do I find something

That will look different from before?

I will know when I find it.

It will sound like 2 chipmunks in the woods-

Chasing one another 

Over the brittle fallen leaves,

Warmed by the sun

On a late October day.

It will taste of cool water from the well.

It will smell like the campfire

When all that remains are cherry embers

Glowing in rhythm with the crisp Fall breeze.  

It will feel like love.

It will look like...

INNER PEACE

Within reach-

Why can't I find it?

I know so much

Yet not enough.

Do I wait for it to find me?

How do I look for the unknown?

Which path should I choose?

Time.

A constant.

Then why do I feel the sand has 

All but filled the bottom bulb?

TheF00L is ever searching,

Ever wandering to find 

That which is just beyond his grasp.

Will his next step be his last?

Will he find what he needs?

Will he fall or will his ever present companion

Halt his descent?

Would his journey 

End with the fall 

Or begin anew?

Where does the "path" start?

The end is clear to my minds eye.
