Unseeking Seeker Poet Jueju

I Shoulda Seen It Coming

I shoulda seen it comin’
but was so entrenched in sin,
that enslaved by senses five,
dark desires kept me alive.

Attention externalised,
everything I did was sized,
deadened to caress of love,
head and heart, not hand in glove.

I was a dead man walking,
enmeshed in lust forms stalking,
until I chose cessation,
nonchalant to sensation.

Letting go of, to get to,
my soul felt bliss beats renew
within the cave of my heart,
deeming all one, none apart.

I shoulda seen it comin’,
that hopeless feeling sinkin’ 
but I see it clearly now,
and thus do give love a bow.
