You might as well dance!

Acceptance is hard, hard for the mind
Mind wants to disregard, and reasons it strives to find
It doesn’t like the peace coz it is afraid
It finds an easier way which is – to blame
It sticks to the “I” as if “I” were the sufferer
And when “I” seek peace, my mind wants to defer
As thoughts stir, the ego is fed and grows big
Hungry as always it always wants to dig
Dig till the “I” starts to feel the shame!
Spiraling the “I” into deep dark drain
The darkness is nothing but the inside pain
I want to scream so loud and cry like rain
Hitting me through the end, thrown apart by my mind
Its time I see that “I” is the victim of the grind
When we see the “I” is separate from the ego
Its time that I wake up and let go
For I realize we are not the ego or the I
Its only a creation and I fall into the trap of the mind
For we are neither our thoughts, feelings nor the I
I forget to see these are simply passing clouds under the sky
When the layers drop, I see the truth
Its all a big drama when I get down to the root
Staying in the truth is all that I want to do
But I also got to respect, accept the mind and the body, I echo
It’s the juggle and that’s the dance and I got to flow
Who am “I”, when I see this from my heart
That’s when and where I begin to heal, I reset and restart!
