When My Journey Comes to an End


















When My Journey Comes to an End

I know my voyage in this life will be over
But through my darkest hours, I desperately
Reach and grab at anything that might shed
A little bit of light on my path.

I tend to feel calm and relaxed when I
look up and stare at the moon or
When I look up and stare at the sun.
All of my problems seem to float away
As I feel the entire universe within me

I have these moments of the world being one
And they carry me through my battles in life.

The sun and the moon may not directly
Influence what happens to me in life
But they are always there,
Awaiting my inevitable return to a place
Where my problems have really all flown away

I will become one with the sun and the moon
When my journey comes to an end.
