Dilemma


The Dilemma


Life’s challenge to wear the face of god

When we do not comprehend the purpose

Existence is ego as we ascend to his aspect

The truth hidden deep within our souls

But our attempts at elevation merely a mask

Erstwhile ambiguity masquerades in its own time

Made in his image we move closer to heaven

Yet cannot enter through its gates, fall from grace

Exposed humanity is not divine but can step closer

Celebrate our importance defined by insignificance

Individual desire burns low unless heart fueled by kindness

To be an angel without wings we must first learn to fly.
