Savoring the the exquisite taste of lonely hours of my being,
I sing in the golden cage of solitude, feeling, thinking and seeing,
I communicate with myself about the essence of my being,
I hear the eternal melodies that carry intrinsic meaning.
Locked in the confinement of solitude, my feelings become universe,
I see the light and all the memories of gloom slowly disperse,
Letting my imagination to take wings in the stillness of space,
In to a vastness where sky and earth interlace.
Here I meet the Creator with face to face,
My thought and conscience lustily embrace,
Floating around the lake of crystal space,
Leaving this cruel world of caste, creed and race.
End of all aimless drifting,I am now back on base,
Cherishing the gift of life that God gave us to human race,
More beautiful than heaven is this immortal place,
A rare oasis full of bliss and grace.
Soul should walk alone sometimes to see the beauty,
To experience the selfless love to do its duty,
In my journey beyond the boundaries of ethnicity,
My soul merged in union with other souls amidst all diversities.
