Through the darkness and the light

A poem for a change :)

I looked up into the sky
and saw the infinity looking back,
the stars winking at me
and the clouds smiling amidst the deepest black

The moon was reveling
in the starlight, so deep
The sky - a part of them
was putting them all to sleep

As I looked on and on
into the eyes of infinity
I found everything I needed to have
solace, peace and clarity

But the sorrow lived on
tinging the clouds a mellow grey
and then the clouds were bathed in gold
as dawn came and held the fray

Even as the sun awakens from its slumber
everyday, dancing to its divine tunes
brings to us the warmth, the winter and the rains
from the rolling grasslands to the mighty dunes

And I have lived forever
And I have lived on
through my slumber and in my glory
I have only moved on

Journeying in this divine nest
that is thrown apart and asunder
by it s own forces
us the living, the snow and the thunder

of humanity, and of the unseen
We only have to know
The sun , was , is and will be
If not here, there and now

And I will look on forever
gazing into the eyes of the infinite
Until I find my answers
I will love you...through the darkness and the light

I ve come to notice that we all run our lives with our own ideas and when we get stuck in these, it s almost like a quagmire .. We have so many pre conceived notions...full of what people, places and things (mainly the media) have thrown at us...which we keep collecting and storing...that after a point things just stink up...I keep wondering why cant we live life without any of these things bothering us, by just staying true to our hearts and nothing else...Then things become so effortless..almost like a dance in the rain...full of that bubbling something which which we ought to be running our lives...with that lightness...just letting go and revelling in ourselves...then we are compassionate..and we transcend discipline....and everyday I have to keep reminding myself to do the same....and I seem to brush against that something in myself which is just a witness to everything that I m doing..reminding me that nothing matters and making me wonder what is the beginning of beginnings and the end of the endings...wishing that some things never end..and wishing they would begin everyday

It is weird when something touches you so deeply and yet you know it is not real. It is real momentarily and then disappears, like the firecrackers except that they last an entire lifetime, before you are born again like the next one that bursts spectacularly..You hope it lasts forever but it breaks your heart and then there it comes again another one....Yet finally it is just smoke...it was, it is and it will be...slowly drifting to eternity...and you try to comfort yourself with this thought until the next new year and it happens to you all over again...or the next new year...but some stay in your heart forever until your body and your mind die and fade into oblivion...ot until you realize that the new year is in you...you are the new year...and all i wish for is to enjoy every new year until i find the source of new years...with a smile...through the colour and the haze of smoke..through the dark sky...through eternity....I m in love...
