Into the Void
Three things cannot Be long Hidden: the sun, the moon and the Truth
- Buddha
I Returned from my Trip to Taipei
My Whole Body had begun to Vibrate
Is This what it means to follow the Way?
Is It some kind of Cosmic ray?
Or All along was It simply fate?
I don't Know what to say
But I'll tell You what happened after just a couple of days
After Being in the Mountains of Taipei
And Feeling the Sound of the Deep Gong
And part of the Greater Universal song
I'd Felt since a Child
Something was Wrong
Pain and Suffering made
Life seem so long
so much effort to
try and Be Strong
And Now
some thing
In side
told me
We can't go on
With tears my eyes had began to leak
Twenty four years old and my Body felt so weak
And It came One afternoon I could barely speak
As this Vibration reached it's peak
Something Inside Moving Deep
Told me Now it's time to flee
Sitting outside the teachers room
Feeling Higher than the moon
Jump down the flight of stairs
Ah good my boss is there
Headache bad, need go Home
I said in an
"I'm about to Die"
kind of tone
Yes of course she said, looking aghast
As I signed myself out and flew Past
On my bike I hope I Last
Must keep on my outer mask
Just a little longer Keep on track
But it's too late
no Going back
Under the afternoon sun Blazing
My face and mouth were Shaking
The Entire World was Quaking
As I flew along the city pavement
And All the buildings they Came Down
And Nothing was there
Not even the Ground
And even I could not Be found
And a Self screamed out
MUUUUUM!!
But even that Concept was Done
And it was blacker than tar
The threads of what I Thought was Reality, ripped apart
And It was the blackest black
But even half a second It did not Last
And then somehow I was back
Although It wasn't quite like That
As I had Never really Gone
Just Realised to this world I didn't Truly Belong
And so there my Human Self I still was
Racing along a pavement Feeling utterly Lost
Feeling like I'd jumped out of a tomb
Finally I reached my bedroom
And hurled myself to the Ground
And howled like a dog in a pound
What On Earth had I found?
After a good round of panting and many gasps
I was again pulled Together and I asked
Is this Something I regret?
I smoked a Calming cigarette
Somehow though I Felt set
Yes there was Fear and terror but I'm glad I Met
That which Is Beyond the ego Mind in my head
I got some chocolate into my mouth fed
Settled down and Wondered whatever next?
On That day Something came to an end
At the Same time Something began again
A Journey that still goes on
But on the Way I've come to Realise
I'm Never Truly Gone
