The Holy Grail

I looked but could not see – listened but did not hear
 
Confusion reigns causing great fear
 
Many faces from different places
 
Tried to run couldn’t get away
 
Tried drugs couldn’t erase the memory
 
Looking for escape from my self imposed hell
 
To leave the confines of my prison cell
 
The shadows of my soul eclipsing the sun
 
Dark clouds in my eyes
 
Block the secrets of the stars in the skies
 
From my heart comes a ripple of hope
 
As I gaze at a new found pathway an upward slope
 
Looking out looking in
 
The guidance for my life comes from within
 
Past memories go to the recycle bin
 
Present experience brings the light of a sun
 
Pressure releases no need to run
 
My new found light from within illuminates a trail
 
Have I discovered the Holy Grail
