our inner voice tells us
here we are encased in body-mind
feeling incomplete, we wish to expand
we sense there is more to us than this
but who we are we do not understand
thought and senses are the tools we use
yet form decays and one day we will die
cognition operates in a limited spectrum
our heart’s secret desire is to wingless fly
trapped in the open we are yet free within
in time stretched silence when ego recedes
from a centreless fulcrum love calls to us
cajoling us to gentle our words and deeds
softening attention, our eye nonjudgmental
we are then with our inner voice connected
the false falls away, light of Self is revealed
soul stands erect, stooped stance corrected
