We all want to be someone!
What’s the point of that?
We all want to matter deeply!
What’s the point of that?
Be yourself
A master once uttered
Be yourself?
what’s that?
Be myself?
Such a question
That seeds the answer
When asked.
Patience and resilience
Stand at the temple door
Sisters, brothers in arms
The way, the labyrinth
Human, yet vastly superhuman.
The path that sparks the question
The question sparks the path.
