Existence teases me
Sometimes by tingling my senses
Sometimes by tempting my soul
Sometimes even by seducing my heart
Whichever,
It tends to will me to feel its goodness
To imprint in my mind
That it is not so cold and cruel
As it seems to be
But, rather
That it is as melting as the tunes of a melodious flute
Or, as uplifting as those of a romantic piano!
Pray,
Existence teases me
And rouses in me
The dozing beast
The same one which can be so demanding
So selfish, so totally mundane
And so totally impure!
Know I already about the path meant for me
Know I already about the meaning of my choices
Yet,
When faced with the temptations of Existence
I become as light as a free flowing kite
I become so light as to blow there where
The winds are
Hoping, while I flow, free and without any care
That I shall not end up all torn and worn
But that I shall end my journey
In between the hands of the one
Who set me free!
To Existence’s whims I shall react
Hoping, at each of my actions
To act as per what is expected of me!
An insightful,uplifting,life affirming work.
An introspective, thought-provoking, literary piece.
Profound expression of ‘being’..at once subjective and universal in its appeal.
