A Deeper Way Poem by John Ackerman

A Deeper Way

When What You Believe Infiltrates Your Behavior The Process Builds The Foundation!
A challenge to be free is a question of time.
My soul permeates the very fabric of my existence
A beacon of light to a hurting world in need of love
look deeper again my sweet friend
therefore gain wisdom with all thy getting gain understanding
one has remained lax from what's spiritual
relying on the temporal
hiding behind the squeaky wheel

a vortex of a surreal memory in thought
one must first perceive it then to achieve it
columns of sand pillars wasting away
with a time well spent in thought
shadows block the view from a far
out of reliance to a master plan
does death hurt you the most or is it fear
we can become blinded by vice and facades

yet our heart is an opened door willing to be explored
all for so much more yet what?
for love is the very essence or fabric of my existence
never to join in it's resistance
out of every circumstance we can take part of the dance
there is a deeper way to reach heaven's door lest I implore another way
bow the knee to pray everyday
with what we do with are time today
will become evident then echoed throughout eternity
bask in the vast expanse between time & space
as if golden nuggets coming down from outer space
