The Search

I waited and kept waiting for a trace,

that would lead me to You

I thought I would find it in the book shelves

So I read and read the volumes 

I thought I would find it in the corners of world

So long and long I journeyed the lands 

I thought I would find it in who claim control

So I bowed to the cloak clad souls

But to my surprise it came to me,
Not from the prophets

Not from the prayers 

The manner that got me to truth, existed

Not in the books

Not in the verses

I uncovered the secret of flight

When I shed my wings 

I engulfed the light of the Sun

When I emptied my sky

I revealed the face of beloved  

When I grounded in love

I witnessed "Him" naked in me

When I closed my eyes
