The Well of Being

Deep in the well of being burns the hidden desire
that you must discover and surrender to.
It alone will open the voice of your soul.

You must find that fiery star and set your course
across the treacherous inner sea.

The awakening of your true longing will inspire you
to persevere despite the fear that looms before you.

Your passion must resonate with eternal being
as you plunge into the mystery depths
so that the resolve generated is pure.

It is that soul purpose only you can fulfill,
because destiny emerges from action and welcomes initiative.

Then you will make your lasting contribution to humanity,
like Prometheus stealing the sacred fire from the gods
you will rise to the occasion and follow the
only life you know you must live but have forgotten.
