In my life I believed it impossible to really lie to yourself.
1st hand experience has forced me to see, that I'm in the spot I deserve to be.
The past few moments a gripping despair has engulfed me.
Like an object in a puzzle picture,an image ya just couldn't see,will become the permanent indelible shape that once seen,so completely dominates,it consumes it's disguise so wholly.
Never to be seen as anything else again,without any choice on your part.With no options,seeing all the horrible things you really never wanted to be.Unable to find the qualities you deemed to be your only path to salvation.
Salvation.........like the puzzle picture.
Salvation........ like your destiny....
still exists wheather or not it's embraced.
Owning the power, but resigning myself to following a path laid by an uncomplicated disguise.
My soul & spirit exists.
Although it is incomplete until my own worste enemy(me)unveils the illusions I only thought were blocking my path
The Omnipresent glow that lights the path to my.......
TRUE DESTINY......
is now the only road in my vision.
Taking the place of the mirage I was calling Life
Never again to be like some unseen object in just another puzzle picture.

Hey True blue
I’m not sure if I agree with the type of “karma” you describe about deserving the situation your in. I see “karma” as how one deals with a situation rather than wondering why they wound up in it.
But I do agree with you that the path to salvation is within us and the only one stopping us is ourselves.

It's all a test!
I feel we keep winding up in situations we say we don't like to be in,but maybe we wind up there because we obviously need to work on whatever little tripwire that keeps leading to the same spot.Jeez! I hope that made sense to somebody other than me .

Hi,
Sorry, this is just a quick comment I’ve got to rush off :
The content of this poem works well, but I'm not sure the format does (at least for me
I think it could benefit from a re-jig of the line breaks and some thinning down consider the opening lines:
I believed it impossible to lie
to yourself.
experience has forced me
to see,
I'm in the spot I deserve to be
