Set Me Free

Do you really know me
I really know me
If you only knew me

The one you see is not me
Its only the one I want you to see
Its only the one I pretend to be

Do you think I’m happy trying to be
Who you want me to be
If you only knew, if you could only see
How much more there is of me

It would be nice to know why we
Play this never ending silly game
Sometimes I want to tell you I’m not the cat
For you to tame

Can’t you understand that I a me
And you are you
Trying to control each other
Is something we should never do

Love is free
Not bound and tied
If I told you different
It would be a lie
Open the cage
And let me fly

Deep down inside I’m not the person
You want me to be
So open this cage
And set me free

Don’t box me in
Just be my friend
Neither one of us should have to bend and bend
To blend in


Love me for who I am
And not who you want me to be
I want to know the real you and you me
But that will never happen
Unless we set each other free
We can still be together
But independently

True love cannot be begged,
Borrowed, bought, or sold
It has to slowly grow
From deep down in the soul

It’s based on respect, honor, and trust
Not dominance, jealousy, and control

Let’s learn to live life to the fullest
Let’s take each day one step at a time
Let me be me
And you be you
Just be a friend of mine

Empty Space

To find one’s self is to find peace

To except one’s self is to find love

To let others be who they are without harsh judgment
Is to find release

To let things be is so sweet
To interact with what is
To be in the in the now without regret

To find one’s self not wanting is to have everything

Close your eyes and see
Do not listen and you will hear
The sweet sounds of nothing
And all will be clear

Be still
Be consumed with quiet, peaceful bliss

Stop the forward movement

Let pressure cease

Trade control for understanding

Trade worry for the dark, silent, empty place

Do not fear this temporal plane

Time eternal takes its place

Past, present, future
Last forever

Empty space

Complex Truth

The complex truth is an illusion of personal constructed reality. It is only as defined as the one defining it. In order to find the truth one must get out of the way of ones self so one can see the interconnectedness and interdependent relationships that surround us. In order to find one ’s self one must be able to go beyond self concepts, ideas, and distractions that get in the way.

Kill the I, the me, the us, and the them. Learn the art of unbeing. Cease to self seek. Peer beyond the curtain of the material world. There are no new truths or ideas. Concepts are but misguided energies. Thinking is a dangerous past time. It will bind you up in yourself. It is a road that never ends.

One must learn to unlearn, to unthink, to take apart what is put together. Especially those thoughts that stem from or have their root in lust, greed, or anger. One needs to try and cultivate right mind or middle way. Get out of yourself and look at the new world around you. Be quiet long enough to see, hear, feel, smell, and touch the manifestation of the essence of all things.

Quiet the minds endless, senseless, and foolish chatter and you will see the complex truth.
