The Journey

When I left home yesterday 

I was incomplete 

Not because I had left something behind 

But I knew that something was just missing 

I just hadn't uncovered yet 

Parts of me that existed 

Didn't know who I really was 

Or how to even define 

What really went on inside of me 

What was going on in my mind 

Then I went down this journey 

Looking deep inside 

Down some steps, through some doors 

Till I reached a point 

Where was a storm dark and deep 

Raging turmoil and turbulence too

And as it rose to play the crescendo 

A stillness suddenly came through 

Into it I stepped with some apprehension

Letting go of my own hand

I plunged into the darkness - I felt myself fall 

Only to be saved by love and joy 

Held safe by Truth and bliss 

I let go of all I knew before 

Feeling my whole being expand 

Into the vastness of the universe 

And then came the Big Bang 

From the center of this boundless being 

As if a new day dawned 

Made out of hope, shaped by grace 

A new me was born 

Dancing to the tune of my own music 

My heart jumped a beat 

As I skipped down the road back home 

I knew I was whole, my journey complete!
