Searching...
by Mary Kathryn McConkey

You are searching for something,
through darkness, no sight…
Yet to attain,
you need a light.
A spiritual journey,
without a roadmap.
Which way are you going?
Inner self you tap…
The knowledge to lead you
seems just out of reach.
Frustration is molten,
where’s the mentor to teach?
For all the roads
you’ve followed till now,
they’ve lead you nowhere
With all your ‘know how’.
For inner strength and wisdom,
you must draw from a source.
To get to where you need to go,
experience should draw your course.
But who’s been where you’ve been?
Who’s found that narrow path?
It’s a struggle for us all
to stay clear of the wrath...
Not just the wrath of God,
but the wrath of His enemy.
His attacks are harsh and critical,
for his time is short, you see.
For everything you are searching for,
the answers are within grasp.
Don’t allow doubt and deception
to come upon you and to clasp.
The light shall dim the darkness;
The enemy will fall.
Hell on earth will end forever,
my brother, here’s a wake up call.
Days and nights are grueling,
but it’s not for eternity.
It’ll get harder, in ways, yet easier,
and at times, we can not see.
Just know there’s more than hope;
The paths to the future are here.
Will you follow the same as the past,
or do you want a path that’s clear?
