Thoughts of mine,
Weave in and out,
Like waves of water,
Still never at once,
Some days the tide,
Is heavy and strong,
But others remain,
Calm as a song,
Flowing with,
Both high and low,
Makes me limp,
Enticed to sleep,
I wondered next,
This can’t be so,
My precious life,
Melting like snow,
Pray teach me now,
So I may know,
To live a life,
Just and wise,
Use this body,
Mind for good,
Not to be,
Misunderstood,
Guided by sages,
Taught by the one,
In fulfilling my role,
As a human,
Just one desire,
Brought me this gain,
Soon that one desire,
Will leave no stain.
