The light lies within.

The light lies within.

A Poem by Spacecadet
"

Look no further than yourself.

"
Breaking away from the demons 
That pull us to the ground 
Running from our shadows, 
Aching to be found 

 Travel 'round the world 
With empty hearts and tired hands
 Seeking guidance in these maps
 To lead us to the promised land. 

 So we tread these mountains 
And wade through seas 
 For at the bottom of the bed 
We might find a key 

 Locked away inside the corners of our life
 Are little pieces of heaven 
 That will align 
To pave the path to paradise.
