Traversing the Trinity Premiere Contest Winner

In the dark alley of time my soul wanders 
With life stumbling on pitfalls of blunders   
The frailty of the indistinct fragile future 
Casts shadow of despair on my innate nature
That is consumed in the darkness tormenting    
Turning my spent spirit into Tamasic nothing. 

I search for a glittering highway to escape
And to carve for my life an egoistic shape
Configuring the elements of desire in essence
Chasing the migrating mirage of opulence
Until in the mindscape sprouts sagacious sense 
Not to be allured by Rajasic impermanence.

Detached from the transient life’s thread thin
I now sink to the depth of eternal soul within 
Where time is lost in the timeless deep silence 
Where the joy of living dances in resonance 
With the pristine perception rising from abyss  
I am then the supreme in sublime Sattvaic bliss.
