Cryptic Communicae

There lies between, a wall unseen by two
who know nothing about...
Live on the I and dream of the You.
One has learned to paddle along the navy waters.
The other bridging many through the dark corridors.

He does not intend to forget...
Though he has wanted to, he must regret.
They just belong to different sides of the river.
Don't they? Maybe it's just his perception.
To appease a heartful obsession.
No contact to cross the seemingly treacherous waters.
He cowers in the event of rough waves.
Observing tomorrow's Maiden voyage
and shying away from her spectators.

A mysterious mist over the silent river.
A message in the bottle he ponders to deliver.
Why must I shoulder the expense?
To fix a bottle and fancy it with text.
Let it be the other side to speak
to traverse the river and to seek.
He is tired of being the master of his profession.

Let midday signal clear
the mist shrouding her voyage
So he can paddle his way to save her
and tell her she is not alone.

Wise Man Speaks Two

As much as one desires perfection in him, with him, around him - achieving it is futile.

Try living your life in the third person and think of what those around you say.
Selfish, individualistic, ignorant and closed people.
People you want to be giving, caring, knowing and open.
A perfect society to alleviate pain, hatred and aggression.

Your life, ancestry or your uniqueness from others is no excuse to betterment.
Do not blame your past or your blood for what you are.
Blame yourself for what you are today.
For it is your lack of betterment and practice.

Perfection is futile. But striving for perfection is not.

Look beyond yourself just for a minute.
Only then shall you witness the greatness of your being.

Lighthouse

My light is yours to scour the seas
for a lonely ship awaiting
Peter Pan to save her from Captain Hook
Voyaging on a windless night
Sees my signal of Land
From treacherous rocks
into the haven
of the bay.

Cleansing

A splash of life on your vision.
Wind gushing in on emptyness.
"I can get through this."
Fearless.

A scented candle burns away steadily.
Silence washes up the shores in waves.
A warmth radiating from your body.
Focused.

A touch for the three pillars.
Voiceless whispers and a clam of hands.
Chi flowing to the heavens.
Contented.

Wise Man Says One

You must learn not to judge
one by its appearance
even in an instant
One should go beyond
analyze in the shadows
reflect in the circles around the square.

In order to understand one
you must identify his
background
in a rice field and laden
in a castle and jewelled.
Then can you
exert patience
friendliness
and your anger washed away
for no longer
are you ignorant.
