Separation…

If I am what I am, tell me, who are you?
I am thinking of you; maybe I am you.	
There is oneness among us that covers all.
I am him, and he is me, and we are you.

I’m me, and you’re you, and you are me,
I am you, and he is me; how could it be?
I can see with my eyes, although it is dark.
I am hoping to see all, as he might see.

I am falling, and I don’t see the way out.
You told me that there was an end to my route.
I am falling into this bottomless pit,
The truth is lost; there is room for little doubt.


You told me to listen; I heard otherwise.
You taught me to look at; I had blinded eyes.
I wish that I could see that what the message is,
I stumbled again, wondering with surprise.

I wish to see the things all here and all there.
A thousand mysteries I found everywhere.
How can I trust my eyes, they betrayed my heart.
But if my heart wants it, they see it as fair.

I do not see myself as once that I was.
I knew all the science and all of its laws.
I wish I knew one more secrete in my life,
How come I came to existence without cause?

There was a time when I thought I knew it all.
All of that I’ve learned made me stand tall.
When I reached at the peak, I found out that I was,
a kind of wonderer, however small.
