A Path Beyond Myself

Amidst the trees you stand,
Hidden by the world.

Quiet and understanding,
Just longing for some time.
Your path is very narrow, and sometimes hard to find.

In between us lie my fears,
That I run from all the time.
Scared of letting go,
of all my control.
A step of faith is all I need to get me where you are.
Though I may not understand,
The process still remains.
Towards the end I will find,
the healer of my pain.

All around you there is death,
But stable still you stand.
Your path brings me much joy, that’s rooted deep within.
A peace and understanding some will never understand.

Though death tries to distract me,
You keep me on the path,
focused and determined to never look back.

I keep seeking something better than the world can ever give,
A new life I have found much bigger than before.
Your path brings satisfaction, like none could compare.

The end is worth the struggle of facing all my fears.
The world is much more peaceful and easy to ignore.
Beyond death I stand, with stability and peace.
Comfort in my heart and a hope for all my dreams.
