A strange encounter on a quiet space
You sit on a seat of calm symmetry
Where the staircase leads up to the landing,
A cozy spot at the top,
Before the door opens to the terrace.
Are you real?
A construct of geometry and imagination,
Of lines of space and waves of thought,
Bounded by a slice of light
From the window on top, and below
The silhouette of a curious fellow.
I see you without eyes,
I hear you without ears,
I feel you beyond the senses,
At the threshold of a portal -
To a new dimension.
Here are only the two of us,
One embodied,
One immortal.
Is this a dream?
This silence, so enticing
Fills the heart with
Love itself, without duality,
Without any direction or distinction,
All is transformed by you
Into a natural harmony
Each breath a packet of light
Dancing in the dark forest of sleep.
Now the break is over,
And the noise greets me,
Far from you, my quiet friend
But I would return soon,
Shall you wait for me?


'Each breath a packet of light
ReplyDeleteDancing in the dark forest of sleep.' Enchanting lines.
Thank you, Ranginee.
DeleteSitting peacefully without thinking anything is a luxury nowadays
ReplyDeleteTruly. Each moment is filled with so much information from all directions, forcing one to think and respond. No time just to be self.

Love these lines.Wonderful thoughts and true in those geometrical lines resides our symmetry thoughts
Thank you, Debleena.
