talisman

she dreams an old future
rising like steam from cement
the way you can see the air
on a really hot day
her struggle began
long ago
and this dream pulls at her
mortal boundaries
knowing a soul is eternal
but she is a temporary being
drawn by the hand of eternity
vessel for unlimited potential
her soul is a dream
and the flesh is a dream
but all the wisdom in this world
won't quench her mind
ever expanding universe mind
and to walk with compassion
like a talisman in her pocket
walk with the highest compassion
a human could possess
touch each being with healing hands
making choices to grow every chance she gets
no more addiction to suffering
this lifetime she will reach Nirvana
create heaven on earth
channeling all that her ancestors ever learned
through advanced meditation
but this gift for ascension
did she always have this?
no, and all the wisdom in the world
still won't quench her ever expanding mind
