To Be Able to See You

Infinity has no boundaries
As I strap myself in tight
Life flows on into eternity
As I paddle upstream with might
Thoughts muddle my mind
Ceasing only in silent dreams
I carry the weight of my beliefs
Yet beliefs remain unseen
They say acceptance is the key
Yet I fight and fight with vigour
They say the world is your oyster
As we all search for the pearl that's bigger
Answers come from within I'm told
You must learn to be
I open my eyes as wide as wide
But it is you I still cannot see .....

you turned a deep personal journey into a love song :) it is most certainly our nature to think we must work for ...to attain ...the world being an oyster ..it needs cracking and prying open right?! :} letting go seems such a huge step in the process of knowing one's self ...but so necessary in order to love someone else .. gave me some deep thoughts for so early this morning KW .. good thing i have had my coffee ;)

For me, I see the spiritual side to this. A accept Christ, continually fight to get upstream, and still cannot actually see Him. But I will one day. Valentine

This is an emotional piece KWP, I know I haven't read much but it is the best one I have read so far. I enjoy the words you choose for your expression of though or feeling. The last two lines are the best of the poem. Very nice, very nice.

ahh thanks what a lovely review - I appreciate your words - yeah I was trying to get a Kabir feeling going - but then I traversed off the road into rhyme - haha happens sometimes X

Nice, life is so like that. Were supposed to understand but it's turned 180 degrees upside down. Liked it very much.

[KWP]

cheers Jesse - yeah everything seems to contradict sometimes - and we are supposed to make sense of it - arghhhhh ! X

[Jesse]

Yup, I so agree.

I feel this way sometimes, frustrated at all those sayings, "all good things come to those who wait"
Truth shall set you free,
you can achieve anything if you work hard enough" They can all have their down side just like every coin has two sides so do these..because waiting doesn't mean good things come you ..telling the truth can also break someones heart and sometime no amount of hard work will get you what you want!
sorry went on a bit lol
I meant to say great write :)

"They say the world is your oyster
As we all search for the pearl that's bigger" - and in the final analysis, KwP, what is a pearl but a bit of grit that annoyed a poor mollusc so much it had to keep spitting on it. Let the pearl-divers waste their life while we spend ours LO_OKing !

I hope you are well my friend :)

[KWP]

that's a sweet truth right there - thanks and great perspective as usual - yes yes all is well this side - sun is shining - birds are singing - Dodger asleep beside me - ahh yes all is well XX

I love those lines... sometimes what we want to see is what we can't... but it doesn't mean it's not real :)
