Into the forest
Into the forest,
I move in alone,
how far I shall go
that’s yet unknown
but deep enough to gain my right
yet still not remain out of human sight
but then the forest is far too deep,
how much will the darkness sweep
my mind will be a vast lonely desert,
with none to converse,
the darkness is now most intense,
how will I observe
Am I still moving into darker ravines
no my voice tells me,
the other half of the forest
is like a path into awakening,
as from the middle
of the density,
I shall be like lightening,
into the sun’s rising streaks,
as out of the forest now I seek
light emerges and makes me wise
the darkness by now subsides,
I am out in the open,
for all to perceive,
from the darkness,
emerges a newer soul
yes
now tis about time
to reach my goal!

very positive Lovedly
forests are the dark..easy to get turned in circles
I hung out in the woods alot...bush country up here..
and then the ravines..one has too follow these
to an inclimbable stop
or leading up
and the open
they are like the spotlight
many fear that
or the agoraphobia
prevents them from
walking across it
sometimes one just
has too shoulder it
wait for it
welcome it
growth keeps on happening
to all
stages of human existance
we can try to throw what
we can under the bus
but sooner or later
developing..
maturing..
embracing the stages
inevitable
is the bravest
choice...
Great Poem!
well written
Thank U!
