Lazy Afternoon

I had embarked on a voyage of the psyche, When deep in my soul I envisioned A being full of compassion. I swear he knew everything. I know this is silly and vain But I always thought he was me. Now something has got me wondering. It began with a pain in my chest, Which I discovered to be guilt repressed. The instant it was confessed The pain would leave my breast. I probed my soul deeply, Where I discovered some good feelings Like forgiveness, and pity. I followed the feelings to him sitting on a rock At the side of a path with his legs crossed. So full of laughter and good cheer, It makes me feel like he’s still right here. On a wooden flute he played a familiar tune, It made me see life as a lazy afternoon With the suns’ blazing heat warming my bones.
