Salvation lies within

Daniel

We write of angels and demons
And of gods and kings
We look to them for salvation
But we fear to look within

And so we speak of a divine forgiveness
And of a love that knows no bounds
We look for these answers in others
But never from within ourselves

Why do we hunger for acceptance
From others it always seems
Why do we always look outward
When our salvation lies within

    I have one mission on earth: to save souls from soulless clowns .
    What is your mission?
    Except the 2....(you know?!)

    • Daniel

      I like your mission albeit an impossible one! Mine is just to avoid getting caught up in others crap......also seemingly impossible!

        I like your poem Daniel. looking inside
        is the only place to see, who it is our spirit intended us to be, it is funny how other peoples crap gets on your finger then crawls right on up your sleeve. ww
