Something inside arises and says we can't waste anymore time.
It says I can't waste anymore time, I can't let this flesh decay
before the spirit inside it has learned to fly.
Something inside is overpowered by the pain of the past,
by lust for the dreams of the future.
It says I just want to sleep, I just want to go numb.
Something inside is inspired by the fact that lust and pain
did not kill it, and says again `I must learn to fly'.
Something inside is growing learning forgetting
walking to the light, falling to the ground,
will it learn to fly in time?
Personal reflections, random thoughts, mostly but not exclusively and unintentionally related to Buddhism and the spiritual path. More specifically, a lot of what is written here is influenced by my practice of Vipassana meditation as taught by S.N. Goenka.
