My So-Called Yoga Life

Looking desperately for something

Imagine what could it be?

Just a place to feel loved

Where there is not any fee

.

Where appearances are nothing

But the look in your eye

That alluring beauty within

Far too bright to deny

.

Things that look perfect

Are not what they seem

If you aren’t careful

Harsh judgments will stream

.

Everyone has shadows

A darkness they keep

And those stares of disapproval

Gouge down far too deep

.

Faith in true goodness

It’s been lost for some time

Everyone is looking

So they can’t be taken while blind

.

But when it’s real it’s ignored

Like it can’t possibly persist

Nothing seems to be trusted

How can we all exist?

.

Give faith to that feeling

You know it inside

Your gut isn’t lying

Don’t enable fear to decide

.

It’s real, feel it,

it wants you to see

That if you will receive it

Forever true it will be
