Finding the Center

Poem about finding the center of one's being.

Finding the Center
by Eila Algood


Is there such a place within our being?

It evades me,
         inspires me, and
                   tires me
                                       
The center is:
a feeling inside that there is only peace
knowing that life is as it as meant to be
                             a sensation of balance
                                       freedom from doubt

Meditate or contemplate?
Let go or hold on?
Forgive and move on?
Love and release?

The path is not clear
or is it?
The answer is complex
or easy.
The question is correct
or not.
Help
Help me:
Know peace
Feel balance
         Experience wholeness

Amidst the separation, anxiety and confusion
Let me:
Know peace
Feel balance
Experience wholeness

Help
Help me:
See the illusion of separation
Remove the anxiety
Sharpen the clarity

And hopefully, find the center.
