THE ENTITY GIVES IN

what I have found I give away

there is no love I have today

but only the tired acceptance of pain

that is totally the world's domain



*


I love being alive

I love having consciousness

but how can one love the world

without the strength of a lion?


how can one love the love

when one is old and totally played

and one's time is past

and one has had one's day?



*


you are tired

you are true

but in a world without mercy

you are surely through



*


how much I loved the things I've loved

but I'd give nothing to do them again

I possess them in my very soul

those days are with me and will never go...


*


if Life is continuous and the quest goes on

and all the past has been accounted for

up to this very instant


then to renew my quest

I must go deeper

and start from there


the clean slate requiring many wipes



*


what ensues

I'll wait patient to discover


I'm in no rush

there's no hurry to the always now
