Inside Out

When life overcomes me
I find myself looking over a wall,
On my side
Are all the complicated relationships
And demands of this world,
The pleasure and the pain,
And on the other side
Is a deep silence, perfect peace,
A blissful emptiness.

I then have an overwhelming urge to climb up
And allow myself to fall into this never-ending space.

But when I give myself some time
And I begin to wake up,
Then all things become clear
And I realise that
I have been living life
Inside Out.

It is so simple
The wall vanishes
All things then have free passage through this space
Nothing and noone stays forever
(although I do enjoy reunions!)
But the space is constant
I think maybe, it is what gives me life.
