Just Because
by
Michael Faircloth
It is near time for me to travel
A new path will soon open
The kindness of the universe will be my guide
My God will protect me
Many fears have waned away
No more tears need to flow
My soul grows louder
Its’ control I feel
Each new step is easier
Obstacles are fading
Life and death merge
Happiness and sorrow become the same
I am becoming in touch with reality
My eyes see through illusion
Facades of life I now discard
Desire
Truth
Knowledge
Love
There is no other soul for me to know
We are all from one great soul
Together we make it whole
I know of Gods love
I see it in us all
Hate is love’s denial
It steals away our soul
Keeping it from becoming complete
Softness will be my world
Peace will be my choice
Love will be my way
Life is always
It never ceases to be
Prophets try to teach us
Churches try to train us
Teachers mold us
Families keep us
Life is the same as death
Each a new beginning
Neither an end
My world grows larger
Strength becomes an asset of my soul
Death has lost all control
Friends do not exist
Others do not see
The world does not care
Boxes are where they live
Life is small for them
Love a commodity
Truth a choice
Peace is lost for profit
Death is fear
Friends are easy
Boxes are safe
I would die in a box
My soul would hide in fear
I would be dead in life
Nothing
I choose no box
A lonely place to be
Millions of boxes around me
None that fit me
I am who I am
Why I do not know
My direction is unclear
My method unknown to me
My goal unseen
My heart true
My soul in charge
My life is life
Just because
