The ocean of Silence
Like a mad river
I will keep on following your
trail
Flowing through your rail
Sailing through terrifying
cliffs
Squeezing through uncertain
terrain
I will knock over boulders
and pebbles
Carry sediments and loads of
questionable stuff
And in my hurry to embrace
you
I will not disrespect you
I will put down all my
anguish
Detoxify myself of all the
horrors of life
I will come to you in peace
I won't let the slippery
slopes of life delay our union
I am a servant of the world
But most importantly, I am a
disciple of Silence
I will nourish the ground on
which I walk
And quench the thirstiness in
the wilderness of life
But I will not be absorbed to
the things of the world
I will always find my way
back to you
I will never let my energies
dry down
I will look for the tiniest
path
That will take me closer to
you
I will let Faith, Hope and
Love be my guide
To stir me towards your heart
Finally, I will be swallowed
by your love
All my being turned to
nothingness
I will be part of your
eternal light
The pulsating sensation of
your unconditional Love
Totally, submerged in the
substance of your being
