Conversation With Soul

In the deluge of the surging river of life
Flooding me with devastating agony
I feel my senses sink deep within 
With the debris of essence once ebullient.

As from the eroded bank of existence 
I see my time disappear in the wreckage
I hear the distant bell toll relentless
Waft faintly in the still air, calling me.

And then the music of life gets silenced 
In the broken violin I lose in an instant
Being submerged in solitude I hear the murmur 
Of the sonorous stream within my soul.

As I search for me in introspection
I listen it whisper the swan song of consciousness
Resonating with the penultimate rhythm 
Of my soulful melody of susurration.

Released from the clasp of karmic destiny
I transcend the limits of time and space 
Yearning to embrace the perpetual peace
I beseech my soul to attain holiness.

Its pristine petals I see slowly unfold 
Bloom the divine lotus of my spirit
Whispering God’s voice in the stormy night 
The clouds of despair will disappear soon. 

I plead let it light the candle of altruism and love
Radiate the gracious glow of God’s benevolence 
Get liberated to fathom the infinite solace
Within quiet abode of absolute bliss in eternity.

In the devout sanctum of heavenly freedom
My soul will attain timeless euphoria of nirvana
The beauty of ultimate oneness it will behold
Merging with the supreme, never to return.
