(98)Convened to Soul
















The winds peeled of my exterior,
The words left many wounds,
The pristine walls were broken,
Some defiance yet, remained intact within me.

I grasped, I swallowed,
I walked along the flow,
I complied with the decree of involvement,
Some rancor yet, remained intact within me.

The spell unturned, season changed,
The airs of an unknown earth rushed in.
Fragrance was sedating, the aura most deliberate,
Pushed pain in my chest,
Moistened my lips, dried up my throat,
Tickled my intestine, uplifted my trust,
Blood in me confused its way.
Moved from my stone hold stature,
I began to melt slowly,
Layer by layer,
edge by edge.

I became a tree, I flared every leaf,
I stood high with pride, Unshaken, not bothered.
My flowers blossomed, I was beautiful.

I clicked the rhythm with the roots,
And moved into the wet soil,
I was enriched, smoothened, more intense, incomparable.

I melted more, I merged myself,
I began to surge deeper within,
I was losing, yet gaining.

I blended in the water, I became a river,
I drifted crest and trough, I was vigorous.
I felt the torrent, and then I was silent, a triumphant.

I bathed in the saps of my own seventh heaven,
I admired solitary amidst endless love.
I found the other part of my soul…I was entire.

I emanated afresh, every miniscule born new,
Unrestrained, pleased, I traveled back through forms,
From the river to the soil to the tree to the stone.

But this time,

There was no defiance,
No rancor,
I was a free bird,
Liberated,
Auspicious,
Euphoric.
I was a soul so complete,
To have accomplished,
The journey of searching the comrade,
And to have become,
One with it……
An undivided soul…
