O, Soul

O, Soul where you reside?
Why are you hidden from view?
Oh, how much I wish to see you
So many unanswered question...

I hear a voice within 
Stopping me whenever I am about to do something wrong
Is that voice yours o, soul?
Why you don't talk with me always?
Why only sometimes?

All scriptures state, seek to perceive the soul
You'll attain salvation
Soul trapped within will be liberated from bondage
Don't you want that to happen?
Who has stopped you from speaking?
Why would anybody do that?

O Soul, my true self 
I know you exist
I can liberate you when I still my mind for long
Why has that been made so tough?

Is their someone who doesn't want your salvation
Our or rather my eternal bliss
Who is it?
And why does he want that?

Does God really love us?
If he did why is he not removing the delusion created by Maya

So many unanswered questions
in the mystery called life
