Cool Surrender

Prostrating just flat,
I felt a strange elation,
the smooth shiny ground felt cold,
on a hot humid afternoon,
and the body had cooled,
my mind had stopped and numbed,
I had only one thought,
that all my life I had fought,
now I had surrendered,
to the ONE,
whom for entire life I had sought.
