Butterfly

Awaken butterfly
you have slumbered to long
seasons have come and gone
years have fanned across eternity
those who knew you when
have long since withered
Awaken butterfly
your time has come
freedom is at hand
spread the wisdom you have garnered
spread the light that flows from your heart
Awaken butterfly
leave behind the shell of
pain and regret that went
with you to slumber
Shake off your past
take flight on your wings
of translucent color
seek the bliss that awaits you
the meaning of the world
the reason of your existence
your purpose

The Night Train

Here,there
In the darkness I seem to be nowhere
Passersby crowd my vision
lovers,strangers,others
the whistle blows
My thoughts I liken unto the endless stream of time
Destination uncertain
Sangri-La or is it Babylon?
the wheels keep turning
moving forward,always forward
sending me away
