Into the forest,
I move in alone,
how far I shall go
that’s yet unknown

but deep enough to gain my right
yet still not remain out of human sight

but then the forest is far too deep,
how much will the darkness sweep
my mind will be a vast lonely desert,
with none to converse,
the darkness is now most intense,
how will I observe

Am I still moving into darker ravines

no my voice tells me,
the other half of the forest
is like a path into awakening,
as from the middle
of the density,
I shall be like lightening,
into the sun’s rising streaks,
as out of the forest now I seek

light emerges and makes me wise
the darkness by now subsides,
I am out in the open,
for all to perceive,
from the darkness,
emerges a newer soul
yes
now tis about time
to reach my goal!
