Even though life is short,
painful with stories,
and forgotten in retort
Even though memories’ glory,
like bright stars in a dark night,
seduce the lessons learnt in part
Even though punishment & crimes,
shame and guilt ridden times,
devour even the best of souls in part
Rest assured but make no mistake,
take this sigh, the friction of an awe,
Let it ride high, the truth is raw
Touch the depth of agony & go beyond,
through the facade, underneath the tide,
let Love, the burst of rising sun glide
Conquer the moment, the mastery of life,
where each breath takes one to rife,
transcendent rays are here to thrive.
