Which Fire Is Eternal

My soul wanders in the dark alley within me, plunges in the abyss of discontent. The unsatiated life, unframed and uncertain, casts a formless shadow of ambiguity on the being, that flares up as anguish in the carnival of darkness, burning my essence to ashes of bleak nothingness. In the gloom of the dismal opaque night, across the murky landscape of the formidable fate, I need to take the ordained last journey committed, for I have promises waiting to be kept, but I lose the tortuous track travelling the illusive time in the tormenting gloom of the labyrinth. The holy fire of spirit is then ignited within me to incinerate the spreading wings of the deluding ego, glows the realigned elements of the dormant force, shows me the path away from the illusive self-worth, and flashes in the mindscape the sagacious sense, not to be induced by the imprudent impermanence. At the fringe of the fleeting forlorn moments, shaping the perspective of introspection, and shining in the inner resplendent heavenly light, I see the blazing sunrise in the dawn of revelation. The rays of hope radiating from the hued horizon, illumines the dark recess of the morose mind. The consciousness in the fold of timeless inner solitude kindles the concealed candle of the almighty, that burns with the radiance of the eternal fire, suffusing me with the glow of sublime bliss, I carry within me beyond the shadow of strife as I travel on the promised path to the lighted sanctum of divinity. _________________ February 26, 2023 Contest : Which Fire Is Eternal Sponsored by : Joe Maverick
