Secret Caverns of the mind

The secret caverns of the mind
Hold treasures and poisons to which the owner wishes others to be blind
Blind to the insecurity there,
Blind to the life and death struggles  each bears
Some hold a person, whole and complete.
With good and ill they are replete
And hidden from all, including themselves


SO delve deeply sir,
Know thine own self
Know of thy limits
And treasures within that lie unused on the shelf.
Wake from the slumber
Wield the good sword
Penetrate thy troves, and thy depths  and reap thy reward.
Plunder the treasures,
Purge all the poisons
Live through the pains
And come forth the champion.
Plummet and plunder and penetrate all
So that in the end you can master it all
Feel of the pains, acknowledge them there
Use all the good and the ill that is there
And mastery that is won
When all is undone
And conquer the world you find deep within
Because inside and outside, your freedom you win
Dare to live
Dare to dream
Dare to be greater by far
Than you currently see and believe that you are
