The Lost Soul

The mirror reflected nothing as I lay seeking the reality beneath the shrouded illusion I had felt close to my heart. Why did I come here, and why was I meant to seek your sanctuary? So many times my heart has bled and yet I have never wanted to leave your side. In my errors, you encircled me with forgiveness, and gave me the next breath of redemption. But why have I come here? Why have you kept my thoughts of you in a heart where it does not belong? Emotions of you? This journey is an endless one, but what becomes of a soul like mine that has yet to tread the first step upon this strenuous crossing? From far I have admired your creation, but within, an emptiness echoes in silence. The echo of this heart does not even make a sound, what sense does that make!?! The pitcher full of water plays a dampened tune, when it is embraced by the affections of touch. Yet the vessel of my body was meant to ring a thousand tunes of praise, but yet has to become what it is not, within, to hear it, and display it. Like the screams of a black crow, my existence is but a scream. I wish for you to answer the call, but who am I to beg for something I cannot even hear? My heart bleeds, I just wish is was not out of yearning for YOU, but out of the joy of being comforted by the one I have always thrown afar and never loved.

Love. What is that thing which the world seeks? Love. Is that you? Or is it another veil that has to be removed from the illusion of this Grand Play? So many joys have been robbed, so many embraces have been lost, and yet the gift of the next breath is given.

I don't deserve this and yet the

heart grows larger. I don't deserve this, and yet the veil becomes torn asunder. I don't love this, and yet the true companion draws nearer? From where have you come, and where will you take me? Has the journey ended or has the deeper pilgrimage just begun? Has the heart been mended and has the rhythm of the soul begun to beat the emotions of a thousand love songs? Have I come to see what I have yet to hold for all eternity? To see what the heart truly yearns and what the mind truly will regret not believing, as my final breath draws nearer?

You have gone. As quickly as you came you have left me again. My Beloved, this existence is empty again now that you have left this bleeding vessel. The cut has been drawn deeper, and the tears will not stop flowing down this trembling body. I beg that you never leave me. My heart no longer bleeds....................it has stopped. Without your Grace this body has lost it's support. It has become lifeless. Still, and without emotion. My surrender never came; I have lost on this battlefield of life. The cycle of this breath is now complete. May you give me such Truth that I may take my final rest in the one place I never could. In the grains of sand beneath your wondrous Feet. Waheguru............
