I turned my face away
I didn’t want to
but I couldn’t bear to leave too
I saw the brightness of the light peaking through
but the strings pulling me back had a force of their own
I know its transient…
yes, I know how impermanent this present situation is…and the passing nature of the attraction has also registered on me.
Still I cannot let go, not now for sure.
I turned my face, and the light which I thought is disappearing, brightened even more
Now its shining upon me, in its full glory
I know that’s the way for me
and I feel its there whether I take it now or later
I bask in this glory, as I have never done so before
this body and mind’s hold will give way once and for all.
life from thought to thought
