The trail I have trekked
for countless lifetimes
has washed away.
The monsoon rain flooded
and gushed through
my inner canyon,
dislodged heavy logs
and gnarly brush
obliterated all cairns
all my carefully carved ways.
Now I tread the streambed
with You,
hop from sandbar to sandbar
climb over flotsam of my past
as You guide me up the canyon.
Within these shadowed walls
I see no path,
and so I must rely completely
on You.
Every time I try to think,
to find a new track
I become lost.
Only You are my Trailblazer.
Only You know the way.
And so I simply follow
keeping You always in sight.
We make our way home
on the true path
that You reveal
in every now.

This poem went right to my core, Lesley. It so resonated with my sense of having no idea about anything anymore. Constant remembrance of and surrender to the Beloved is the only option. When I forget that I wander off into misery and confusion. This post buoyed me up. Thank you.
