Analysis of Energy Within
Nicholas Broe 1987
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I fear not that moment this body shall take it's last breath,
for in that moment I know that all is alright,
for it is but a moment before my spirit shall start it's next life,
I may travel the stars or fall from the sky as rain,
all I know for certain is this spirit of mine remains,
this energy that makes up all of our lives,
connecting us all despite all of our strife,
energy that has been around since the beginning of time,
has found it's way to us here in the form of our minds,
how each of us use this energy will determine many things,
for all of our actions determine what the future will bring,
all of this energy has come from the same place,
just take a look in the mirror and glimpse OUR Universe's face.
