245 – Buddha
I didn’t expect it
To hurt so much.
I searched
For ultimate truth,
And found it.
This was supposed
To be a moment
Of liberation.
Why does it hurt
So much?
Of course,
Silly me.
I forgot knowledge
Not only comes
In all shapes
And flavors.
It’s also
A very sharp
Double-edged
Sword.
It takes
More than
A strong hand
To hold it.
You need
The skill
To wield it
Without carving
Your own heart
Out.
