Best Soul Searching Poems

Waking to cold blown tent, ground frozen icy hard
woods are my love, as is poetry to a bard.
Today starts my anticipated forest trek,
seeking salvation from heart's emotional wreck,
last night I watched stars twinkle in heavenly skies
pondering how to overcome world's darkest lies.

Now dawn breaks, sends...

I walk deeper and deeper into my own mind, looking for something while completely blind. 
Nights embrace only makes me travel deeper, with the road only getting steeper.

Not knowing who I am or what I need, I will continue my 1 man stampede. 
Searching for...

Music, art of sound, pitch, rhythm
Meditation, art of disciplining mind, body in tandem

Music harmonises senses, eases tensed up muscles
Meditation calms mind freeing it from weed of entangles 

Music, the way is from ears to senses through mind 
Meditation, the way is from body to no-body,...

SOUL SEARCHING


Closing my eyes
shaking my head
tears reluctantly flow,

My Soul weeps
behind closed shutters
dumbfounded

Seeking solace,
peace, understanding,
mercy.

The shutters
must be opened
as blindness
heals naught

“My eyes -
the windows
of my soul” **

So do we walk,
eyes open
into life

searching 
the open windows
of weeping souls.

**”The eyes are the window to your soul” - Shakespeare

I meandered through the muddy Mekong
Searched in sultry sexy Saigon
Ravished in the Cat Thien Rain forest
Yet I still could not find you

I found myself haunted in Hong Kong
Caught up in the cacophony of China
Trailed my way thoughts to Taiwan
And still I could not find you

I...

There is the light in your soul
Something deep, deep inside
That you want to hide
Because its your precious guide

People are curious and cruel
They want to reveal 
The treasure they will steal
And you will never heal

The part of you will be gone
You will never be whole
If you...

I am one to believe,
That if only people could see,
What’s really, truly me…
…That one day this world would understand.

I am very different.
Yet, common to the eye.
But what’s inside the heart,
Proves that the outside is just a lie.

On average, if you should know.
Based off of the...

People tend to judge
What they do not get.
As I lay here on my couch
I pack my bowl
And don’t regret.
I don’t regret The places that I've been.
Or
The people that I’ve met.
I’ve traveled Here and there
And back again
And yet I haven’t left.
I’ve seen the stars explode
Inside my...

Sip slow a breath
With each rhymed depth
As hymn of light
Grows through one night--
Then let the hush
Meet heart its gush
As a world wakes
On crest of lakes
To kiss life’s flame
This joy I claim:
And hazed thoughts spill
From a mind’s  grill
When time brings calm
Like froth dewed balm…
How pure...

Every morning, when I walk under my cherry trees,
There is soothing breeze which awakens my senses,
The flash back of life events roll before my eyes,
I am sent in soul searching and search for the meaning of life,

Long ago, I came to USA with a suitcase...

The narrow ledge
Led down from the ridge
Taking the steep side
Each step piloting
This descent into the heart song
Abiding deep within our longing spirit

Pivoting beams of sun flash
Through the soft flowing blanket of trees
Below to the far woodland floor
It's light cascading to stream
Between the real and imagined
Binding...

It's okay to say No
If you're not ready for something new
If you're questioning and confused
If you are unsure or if you hesitate 

It's okay to say No
While you're moving forward
If you have to take a step back and pause
Or wrestle 
Or revisit 

It's okay to...
