The Point of No Return

Title:“The point of no return” by yours truly.

 

I asked a question long ago,

the answer satisfied me not.

I ask so many questions now,

the answers tie me up in knots.

 

I'm surrounded now by many questions,

at this point I've come to rest.

To go further is the only lesson,

this point of no return, a test.

 

I must seek within myself

knowing not what I shall find,

I shall seek within myself,

to break the many answers that bind!

 

Deep within my heart I've found

a sacred gate that I must pass.

Flames of sorrow leap from the ground,

burning, and a mirror of fine glass.

 

Wreathed in flame I go, melting ‘way the past.

Warily I go, but I am cleansed at last.

Finally the mirror, and what is it I see?

I see the truth at last, the self that I must be.
