Anacreontic Couplets - Recognition

Unaware of who we are, it’s clear we’ve drifted afar, insentient to God’s light, glowing within, day and night. To this end, our will we bend, that in silence, we ascend, simply melding head with heart, feeling bliss ignition start. Ego dies, we become wise, truth of Self then realise, dancing with love cheek to cheek, that we are he, who we seek.

Thank you! A new form learnt, something like Lay but with 7 syllables per line instead of 8

This is a real mind bender, but spot on. "...that we are he, who we seek." Out of all your poems I have read so far...over this Christmas Day, this one by far the best. A safe, peaceful...and hopefully happy Christmas Seeker. Xx
