Seek the Truth

Hope is a delusion,
that deludes many.
Have you found the Joy,
without the seed of pain within it?
Have you found the shore,
that doesn't have another end?
Have you found Love,
without sadness in it's fold.
Look for the Truth,
for in it's lair none else resides.
Devoid of deception,
Truth lays bare everything.
Devoid of attachment,
it pains no one.
Devoid of suffering,
it hurts no one.
It is Just it is,
like you are Who you are.

Nature of the Soul

Soaring in the air,
yet not aloft.
Touching the water,
yet not wet.
Such is the nature
of the Soul.
Living in the world,
yet not of the world
