Look Inside
In shadows deep, where dreams take flight,
A seeker wanders through the night,
With an outward gaze, the world they see,
Yet, deep within, a mystery.
"Your vision will become clear," they say,
"When in your heart, you choose to sway,
For outward dreams, they come and go,
But inner truth begins to glow."
In stillness found, where silence sings,
The soul takes flight on quiet wings,
With introspection's gentle call,
The heart unlocks its hidden thrall.
For in the depths, a world unfolds,
Where secrets lie, in stories untold,
Emotions swell, the heart's terrain,
A wellspring of wisdom, love, and pain.
To look within, to peer inside,
Where dreams of self and truth collide,
Awakening the soul, we find,
A path to understanding, kind.
No longer lost in distant schemes,
No longer lost in fleeting dreams,
The heart's own mirror polished bright,
Reflects the soul's pure, inner light.
So, turn your gaze from outer scenes,
Explore the depths of what it means,
To look within, to truly see,
The awakened heart, where truth will be.
I applaud your skilled use of
I applaud your skilled use of the ballad quatrain to present your poem's subject.
