Why do I feel so sad
to release my suffering?
I know its source! And still!
I cling like stickseed
burred burdens born
impossible to remove
without wisdom realizing
the true nature of all things
impermanent
not existing inherently
so what does that mean
when I cling so
to this suffering
inborn familiarity
infinite lifetimes old
makes 21 day habits
impossibly young
and still, we must
abide by these present
physical laws in order
to attain the higher
understandings and escape
of ultimate Enlightenment
for the benefit of
all living beings
the only way to make
any meaning of my
present suffering
