be still

when the mind falls

for even a moment

this is the time to sink in 

and not rise up back into the waves 

that pull one outward 

and create a world

it is this stillness that washes 

away the ego with its false shades

and haunting thoughts..

there is no other way

precious seeker

but to rest in the true essence

as one is walking across a bridge

to get to the side of peace

what a waste to go back again

to the dark lands of unrest

yes?

the ghosts that follow you will

not be turned away easily

what will set them running

is when the lies are laid bare -

and great quietude is entered..

indeed yes

to be free

dear one 

be still

be still...
