Top or Bottom

Jamie Tierney 1991 (Cardiff)

Remaining purposely stuck in past,
Allowing karmic cycles to last,
Absorbing others emotions becomes vast,
Abyss within instead loving steadfast,
Resolutely entrapped by their egocast.

Knowing ones value, never settle,
Focusing on soul song, crucial,
Freely choosing from inner signal,
Facing adversity, never wavering, central,
Karma from actions leading celestial.

About this poem

Decisions based around and or, off of others lead to inner unbalance.
