You'Re the Eternal Ocean

Engagement with thwarted life in existential primal crisis
searches experiential solution in life’s nebulous narrative.
With purgation of edgy emotions and clasping catharsis
hears the whispers of the inner invite of the divine ecstasy.

Cohesive complex sense of self, the crafted chronicle
epitomizing the dubious meaning of the enigmatic life,
turns out often to be the albatross around the neck.
The ship wrecks in tempest, the ancient mariner drowns.

The sublime spirit poised static in the blue of tranquil depth,
a perfect poem rhyming with the infinite amplitude of bliss,
engrossed motionless in the boundless ethereal ethos,
creating ceaselessly the omnipotent consciousness within.

Spilling pot of chore broken, strings of attachment snapped,
captive psyche finds the final freedom in joy of renunciation,
perceiving in deeper self united with the absolute, the divine,
you’re no longer a drop in ocean, you’re THE eternal ocean.
