Original · Poem

Dangling Above the Abyss

Dangling Above
Suspended by a Line
Vision Blocked
Of what Lies below
Fear of Uncertainty
Gripping Desperately
Line seems crucial
Falling into the abyss overwhelms
Grip tightens
Fear heightens
Pain Grows
But realization eventually flows
Why hold to fear of unknown?
Let go and fall below
Then what will you know?
Pain released
No more control
Confidence and Peace
Freedom at last from fears of the past
Eternal is ME
White Light am I
Power is mine
Loving Self is what I find

I do not know what I may appear to the world; but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself now and then in finding a smoother pebble or prettier shell than ordinary, while the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me. – Isaac Newton
