Touch Me


earth bound, desires twirl us around
looking to heavens, feet on ground
cyclic joy and pain, cause of fear
afraid to lose, what we hold dear
joy in permanence, never found

illumined sages speak of soul
scriptures affirm we may be whole
feeling complete, with bliss replete 
each fellow being, with love greet
we decide to make God our goal

we look within, at head and heart
throbs divergent, they stand apart
our ego spawned thoughts spiralling 
obvious cause of suffering
thus our life anew, we restart

we follow not any doctrine
simply, our head and heart align
ceasing to size, we vaporise
delighting in each life surprise 
choosing the path of love divine

heart is where each impulse begins
cry when we lose, laugh when we win
yet heart invites Gods miracles 
bliss renewal ineffable 
provided we be free of sin

no sooner we shift, clear light dawns
erst fears and desires, are both gone
within our heart, Gods love awaits
to throb of bliss, our soul gyrates
Gods loving touch, sees us reborn

moment to moment, we thus flow
magnetised with an inner glow 
pulsating within, day and night
our open secret, in plain sight
loving equally, friend and foe

narrow mind cannot understand 
our heart uplifted by Gods hand
we would, if we could, our joy share
each soul must themselves with love pair
soul transcending to pastures grand
