Seeking Freedom

I stand before myself

lost within my words


how to find something

I never knew existed

I'm at a loss


how to feel a feeling

I never knew existed

I'm at a loss


how to craft my life 

in the midst of such turmoil

I know not


yet I want to know

I deeply want to know

that thing most desirable


what is the ultimate

what is truth

why do I care


how to know what it is

that which completes my life

I'd pay any price


for the moment drenched in love

knowing the bliss of two becoming one

holding the other as the self


for that moment of divine insight

the ecstatic bliss of life in highest pitch

the glimpse beyond the wall of death


for one most cherished moment of freedom

freedom from all compulsion

freedom even from the burden of self


all these moments what are they worth to myself

to myself in a moment of sorrow, anger, or fear

then it's like a mocking dream or illusion


but still I want to cross that wall

that wall to the beyond

beyond all sense I want to


to the other side

to the other side


just to make my life there

to live in that space

I'd pay any price 

I'd do anything


freedom is my way out

freedom is my only way
