Who is Our True Savior

Who gives breadth to my vision,
gives resin to my bow,
and who gives depth to my incisions,
when removing all the malignancy
too late for thoughts to throw.
Who stands back in wisdom,
to reveal truths blinded by my plight,
gives rise to my questioning
what in repetition has brought me strife,
all for my awakening.
Who stands in quandary,
having got up from falling down,
gives me the strength to continue,
even though my answers elude me,
what I don’t know so profound.
Who chooses to remain here,
when it would be so easy to let go,
knowing that responsibility
is a lesson I cannot forego,
in the pain of all my learning.
Who hides beneath the covers,
tries not to address the foes,
all the time knowing well
its the only way to go,
to learn what I must.
Who echoes all the answers,
when my mind is stuck habitually,
tries to forge the circumstances
that reveal my disability,
all for the good of me.
Yes, its me, my inner voice,
all the time so loyal, so at peace,
when I in frantic dilemma,
can’t see the truth or ruse,
and do I cease or even listen?
Who holds the keys to all my problems,
the path to wisdom and silent calm,
yes its me if I would listen
to the soul with knowledge profound,
so maybe I should pay attention.
