Relationships 

What good are

They?

You broke

My heart

Tore down

My door


Now exposed

Naked before all

Feel ugly

Depressions 

Gonna

Fall


I knew 

This truth

Thought 

I knew

It well

Taking 

refuge 

In others

One way

Ticket to 

Hell


Even good

Relationships 

They pass

We all

Face

Death

Alone

Under

Grass


Don't give up

Find peace 

Within

True 

Refuge

In life

Love

For

All

Begins


Love 

Beyond

Worldly

Beyond

Mundane 

True

Love

Exists

On the

Spiritual 

Plane


Wish I could

Say

Loves an

Easy

Walk

But

When

I'm in it

These

Words

Are

Just

Talk

But then I look for the Buddhist and Bam!  Same problem, there's nothing there. I must confess enjoying my nonexistent self today, uh oh, that could mean trouble. Now that I have realized my life is just a dream am wondering what comes next, or if there is a "next." Maybe I will keep looking a little more to be sure no self is to be found. The way things are going I might end up a Buddhist. Now not only can I not find myself, I can't find anyone else either.  I close ...
