A Fine Darkness

Having closed
My eyes in a dark
empty head in thoughts
I stay between body and mind

Fine darkness in it
No colors 
No signs
Nothing 

The noise of the outside
Moments no time
Calmness 
Of nothing
How long I can keep it 

Knock on the door
Awoke from the nothingness

Again mind
Again, body
In the real world, which
I am deceived

Udaya R. Tennakoon

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
