Suffer to Thrive

Dead end posted on Escape Lane
Destination Blvd isn't very beautiful
The darkness on Lighthouse Ave
Disease, fear, loss, and separation
The strobe lights that guide our ships

The waves the perfect height
Salt in our wounds
Expands and heals
We are called to enjoy the ride

Attached to nonattachment
The safety ring thrown overboard
The anchor comes untethered
The weak sink, the strong swim, the empowered float
The content walk, the achievers run, the enlightened are still

The sun still rises
The moon holds back no surprises
Unimpressed by expectations
Suffering in stillness
Thriving through suffering
