Nobody

 

I am nobody
Although sometimes because of the
things Eternity does through me,
People think I am Somebody.

Being Somebody is hard.
All the ideas, concepts, and expectations
pushed upon me from outside, and
if I believe for even a second that
I am Somebody,
Those ideas, concepts, and expectations
lock me inside a tiny box.

Inside this box, it’s hard to move,
And even worse, it’s hard to hear
the sweet sound of Eternity.

Fortunately, deep down, I know
I am nobody.

Being nobody, I am free.
Free to dance and play in Light.
Free to follow Eternity wherever
She may lead through
Infinite Awareness.

I am nobody, now here … or is it no where?
