TOMORROW OR TODAY

Shuddered sight,
Creates a vision of divine creation,
Shuddered sight,
Gives birth to new life,
Taking possession of
Innate initiative,
Innate wisdom.

Time is kept in an hourglass,
Turning over the sands of crisis,
Within all crisis is found disorder,
And within disorder,
The freedom from constraint.

In a world of routine,
A life we must make for ourselves,
To write a book
That is filled with empty pages,
We can only dream.
Fulfil the dream and the book
Will be filled with all hope,
As perception of life's pleasures
Are changed forever.

Did you ever wander
In those streets of confusion?
Or swim like a swan
In the seas of allusion?
Did Time's coldness shiver
Or did you hope for Time's Grip
To simply take you away?
Time will take your soul away;
Tomorrow or today,
Never to give it another chance like this.
So, in the time that you have left,
You must try your hardest
And do your best,
So that one day you may gladly hear,
The accomplishments
That you had so carefully done,
Humbly spoken from the mouths
Of these wise-ones,
Exemplified and remembered
For a hero’s lifetime.

A life kept in legend to light the way,
To teach the young a better way,
To give back the true meaning lost to time,
To let them know,
To let them understand,
Life’s impermanence,
Life's master plan.

See how age can build great wisdom,
See how knowledge
Can truly be your own,
When wisdom is gained
From deep down inside.

So, in the time that yet remains,
Free your mind but take hold of the reins,
Free your heart and awaken to what is true,
See with wisdom what is truly false,
Become the wise-one who will
Speak this truth to the world,
Speak of true freedom and peace
For all that surround you,
In this world battered by
The winds of change.

Freely roam within this kingdom,
Freely speak the words of wisdom,
Words that teach the young to be wise,

Wisdom is freedom,
And freedom is a wise word.
A delicate balance in this world.

Freedom.
