Poem From the Ether... 20Feb07


Vindictive 
Why
must the ego
sabatage
my ecstacy?
My Friend,
this hide and seek
is driving me
mad;
Madly in love
with
Your
kiss
Longing
for existence
in
Your Bliss;
Won't You
shower
Your
blessings
upon Me?
Why must I wait--
I want You now!
Reveal my
ever-present
Self
to me !
Lift me
out from under
the stronghold
of the ego's
desire.

(Who's veiling the Self, anyway?)

Hold me
in Your gaze
forever more
or else
I promise
I will SHOUT
Your name
at the
top
of my lungs
like a silly
child
and
s h a t t e r
the veil
You hide
behind!
Take the
tick-tock
out of time;
You must
come out
and play!
Love Me
NOW!
Bhakti fall's
at Your feet and begs--
"May it be so!"

Thank you for visiting...and for your lovely comment. I reread the poem and couldn't believe that I wrote it! (That's how it is sometimes when I write the poems down directly after meditation.).

Love to you,
Bhakti

PS I've been under the weather for a bit and am planning on updating this blog sometime very soon!
