Darkness

Light

Which will prevail?

 

Swimming through the mud

I reach out

Can I be pulled out?

What to hold onto?

 

I remember my soul

I remember my connection

A glimmer of light

Revealed within

 

Darkness

Light

Which will prevail?

 

The five thieves

A distraction

A poison

Shackled by one’s mind

 

Meditate

Remembering truth

Prevailing through time

Touching knowledge within

 

Darkness

Light

Which will prevail?

 

Consciousness reawakens

Divine wisdom is offered

Darkness departs

Light shines through

 

Walking with guidance

The Path is revealed

Wisdom and Knowledge

Is given access

 

Darkness

Light

Which will prevail?

 

Revealed through the Guru

Light illuminates

Wisdom prevails

A path to liberation

 

Connecting with Soul

Connecting with God’s

Divine frequency

I am at peace

 

Light shines forth

Darkness is eliminated

A Guru’s blessing
