My eyes see it come back*

My eyes see it come back*

Many years ago when I use to believe

My eyes had sight in goals to perceive

Strong for reason knowing it works out somehow

"Mind" within such perception when one allows

As time went by and there was such a struggle

What was I striving for in this uphill tussle?

Could this be in what we came here for?

Or something that is lesser than this that could be more

For some odd feeling there was no outside the box

I had the key within myself to open up this lock

The fuel was desire into it I fell

Conditioning for many years under its spell

As it is suffering that comes from desires

This conditioning was ignorance that was hardwired

But now I see the world is not outside

Instead I seek in depths within so vast and wide

This was what I came here for and I should have known

All these moments past it was the me I didn't know was shown

So now that to which I seek can no longer be

That to which I sought for is inside of me

I guess when  you start out in life the path is really here

Learning from ignorance in an external world is not so clear

But with a little bit of know how and discipline with dedication

You will now see your eyes turn back within this direction
