Circle of Darkness

Circle of Darkness

Trapped within my thoughts
of hatred and despair
struggling with the demons
it seems too much to bear

Want to put an end
to this abyssic state
suffering and screaming
I'm very full of hate

Praying to the Lord
to save me from that hell
hope to ease my burden
and take the Satan's veil

Seems I get no help
stuck in my mental cell
in the circle of darkness
it seems I'll always dwell

The wise man "maybe" story and higher order


[...] The deeper interconnectedness of all things and events implies that the
mental labels of “good” and bad” are ultimately illusory. They always imply
a limited perspective and so are true only relatively and temporarily. This is
illustrated in the story of a wise man who won an expensive car in a lottery.
His family and friends were very happy for him and came to celebrate. “Isn't
it great!” they said. “You are so lucky.” The man smiled and said “Maybe.”
For a few weeks he enjoyed driving the car. Then one day a drunken driver
crashed into his new car at an intersection and he ended up in the hospital,
with multiple injuries. His family and friends came to see him and said,
“That was really unfortunate. “ Again the man smiled and said, “Maybe.”
While he was still in the hospital, one night there was a landslide and his
house   fell   into   the   sea.   Again   his   friends   came   the   next   day   and   said,
“Weren't you lucky to have been here in hospital.” Again he said, “Maybe.”
The   wise   man's  “maybe”  signifies  a refusal  to judge  anything that
happens.   Instead   of   judging   what   is,   he   accepts   it   and   so   enters   into
conscious   alignment   with   the   higher   order.  [...]

The Eternal Battle

The Eternal Battle

I'm torn between two worlds
the light and the dark
an angel and a demon
both want to leave their mark

The spirit seems so strong
but oh, the flesh is weak
it craves revenge and pleasure
the ego seems to kick

I want to be a god
the master of mankind
the greed, the lust, the craving
all these are on my mind

It seems that's really hard
to crush this evil urge
possessed by the demon
asking for a dark pledge

The heart is getting cold
and feel the need to escape
from all this mental torture
it's like a fiery lake

The angel comes to fight
the dark forces of the world
he gives food to my soul
and says it's a hard road

I watch the bloody fight
of good and evil sides
the demon casts a spell
and summons the dark mights

The angel brings a shield
and fights with holy rage
immersing me in white light
I'm going through a change

I fell I've lost desire
for all delights of earth
I start to offer help
and see what really is worth

I start to clearly see
the wonders of the world
and that is all so great
so vivid and so bold

The demon is knocked down
and is so full of rage
he starts to slowly leave
and lastly, swears revenge

Don't know where I belong
and who will be my master
the only thing I'm sure of
is this eternal battle

Dawn

Dawn

Like a pretty daughter
she comes in all her charm
sharing hopeful light
of something new to come

Like the best art piece
that man has never done
hear the sounds of birds
they seem to greet the sun

Such a magic moment
of wonderful delight
it almost seems too much
for our humble mind

Like all good things though
the moment soon is gone
and hope I'll live next day
to see again the dawn
