Live or Leave<\/p>\n
I have to leave.
\nI have to leave them, who mean the world to me.
\nThe quivering feelings and teary eyes,
\nThe fleeting thought of how to survive!<\/p>\n
I see the world swirl around
\nwith the same pace, with the same chase.
\nHere, the ice palace is melting in rain.<\/p>\n
My feelings are steady and wisdom rises.
\nIt\u2019s okay to live or okay to leave.
\nThe karma vibration has to cease.<\/p>\n
My call will come. I may hesitate,
\nBut my dearest says, \u201cI will be fine,\u201d
\nAssures me the rest will be fine.<\/p>\n
In the tree of my life, the buds had bloomed
\nand fragrance had loomed.
\nThis flower did bear the fruits to share.<\/p>\n
The work is done.
\nIn peaceful lull my life succumbs.<\/p>\n
——-<\/p>\n
I may be singing this song after many years. A poet’s compassionate imagination.
