The Subtle Call

Poem
Restlessness eats the peace of mind,
How not to hear the silent cry?
The body whispers:
“Give me full attention,
nothing matters more than me,
Go subtle,
I promise to reveal
what you need to know.”

Poem
Intense work leaves much joy,
But hyper-talking empties me.
I eat more than usual,
Inner discomfort is intolerable.
I drift away, unsure how to return,
Self-destruction seems an easy choice.

Poem
Duality helps meeting the self,
To discover our restless mind,
And what is actually there inside.

Desire.
Desire – A strong, intense thought,
Always running at the back of the mind.
Questioning, provoking.
Painful to resist.
Can we truly discriminate?
A fire that burns not to consume—
But to reveal.
