A Journey is a poem about one's subconscience and enlightenment.


A Journey


You have set off for a journey,
long and dangerous, and are going back
to your past. You'll clearly see
your whole life, and even the
moments, when you closed your eyes.
Lives of your ancestors, you will also see.
They will walk in front of you, lost
in their problems.

And you will be afraid. You will shake
without a voice, too weak to move.
Then think of a shield, and the shield will
be in front of you. Again, you will come
to the same place, and need strength.
Wish, and you will be strong.

You will repent; you will regret for even
thinking of evil. You will need forgiveness...
And you will forgive yourself...

And, then you will have to build.
You will need the skill and patience,
and you will be skilled...

You will be happy and need
a laugh and a play. You will laugh
and dance. Your arms will be
free, and your pace will be light.
You will feel the fresh air on your skin.

And, then, you will know that
you haven't traveled alone.
