The Judge Within

Many fear death and the end of life;
knowing that judgment awaits;
unable to sleep through the night;
their mind considers its fates.

But their understanding is totally flawed;
they know so little, what life is about;
once they’re aware, they’ll be awed;
they’re looking at reality inside-out.

All of life resides within the Master;
He’s never relinquished his role;
author of every success and disaster;
each life is a part of His soul.

The Master authored our separations;
there’s so much we need to know;
He’s totally aware of our evil flirtations;
but knows, what we need to grow.

We each are a whole world, within a world;
granted a kingdom of sight and sound;
thoughts still in Eden; physicality, unfurled;
we’re life in a world, underground.

Everything physical; a grand illusion;
only the mind is free to roam;
physicality is the season of confusion;
only death can lead us home.

We think we’re the captain of our soul;
hiding all the evil we’ve been;
defying judgment was never our role;
for, God is the judge, within.
