From darkness to light
containerised in form
enslaved by senses
bemused by ego
we are bound
adding to our woes
organic form decays
destiny seems random
flow of linear time taunts
vastness of space mocks
we are a speck of dust
wishing to be more
not knowing how
as for pride in our mind
we know not who we are
we clutch at wisps of straw
haunted by fears and desires
yet in the scriptures it is written
that we are children of God
a soul which is eternal
love, light and bliss
why then languish
wallowing in shallows
leap in the void to reclaim
the living light of our true Self
