Grasping Veiled Reality
“plunge in now, into the current
reclaim true self, luminescent”
_ quote by poet
________________________________
heart throbs soar when blessings in-pour
consciousness core, seeking encore
let’s out as gasp, failing to grasp
fleeting illusions cannot clasp
down on all fours, we yet seek more
each breath we inhale, must exhale
letting go then, why fears assail
with God our guide, fearlessly glide
propelled by His life breath inside
renouncing erst desires, now stale
fears serpentine, poisonous vines
with heart entwine, bind and confine
plunging our soul in deep despair
until with love sublime we pair
blissful, when head and heart align
embrace, hold and release with ease
flowing like the fresh morning breeze
heart with love hued, our mind aware
urge to cling and clutch, ego snare
one with Gods light, as we unfreeze
