Hide and Seek
we’re looking for something
intimate and immediate
but we know not what it is
leaving us feeling incomplete
we ourselves are that who we seek
but the illusionary seeker must die
for that who we truly are to shine forth
and therefore we resist
there is no one else here
the struggle is imaginary
for we have created identity
but are now loathe to relinquish it
fortunately there is a simple way
to resolve this delusional impasse
simply by ceasing flow of thought
and dwelling in tranquil inner silence
ego fades and soul’s light is revealed
in as it was always there but veiled
it is this that is made in image of God
it is this who we are ~ living light
