Stop (An Original Poem)
is its own dimension,
and time is but a strand
of worlds in which we lace?
and effect
lies an amazing place
of coincidence and
it’s so easy to be
driven to distraction
by the stories it speaks.
the room you know it,
the undeniable essence of it
dives deeply into your heart.
of who it is you really are,
presenting you with
a set of eyes
to connect with,
a moment of
sacred reconciliation.
beauty is rarely
long with us,
so we must
embrace imperfection,
learn to trust it,
before we rust
into oblivion.
we must simply stop running.
There is more
to life than the hustle.
isn’t built upon
making memories
we think will become
some gripping memoir
but merely walking
the path of the sages.
As always, I thank you for reading.
Yours in the Chain,
Eric
