Inside

A small poem

I gathered the courage to turn inward.

Chasing this and that took all and gave nothing.

I looked inside in search of adventure.

Chasing felt like a marathon but it was stagnation.

I looked inside to pause myself for a while.

I looked inside to free myself from the experience of time.

Chasing this and that took all and gave nothing.

So, I gathered the courage to turn inward.

Perhaps my soul wants to guide me this time.

Perhaps my desires are weak and small.

Perhaps life wants to show its real form.

Maybe my life itself is turning inward.

So, I gathered the courage to turn inward.
