Silence

 

 

 

 

 

Not a word,

not a word,

you do not grace me,

within, without,

I wait,

I wait,

with sullen pout.

 

My fate,

my fate,

How can it be?

So silently;

you give me,

not a thought,

not a thought.

We are together you and I,

destined to be conjoined.

We cannot part,

though I have tried –

two sides of the same coin.

 

You have your demons,

I have mine,

our paths not meant to cross,

parted from our distant poles,

without you I am lost.

 

Your heart refrains my harmony,

our breath is intertwined,

your dreams haunt mine,

I shadow yours,

you dwell within my mind.

 

Our souls can’t be dissevered,

but neither can they join;

we are from different planets,

defying space and time.

English: The Sun directly opposite to the moon...

 

 

I’ve seen your face,

a thousand times,

it’s like the setting sun.

I’ve called your name,

have you called mine?

I rise and you are gone.

 

We are so different,

you and I,

you’re up when I am down.

You call, I run,

but where are you,

when I need a friend around?

 

You are the sun,

cowardly cold,

remote, aloof, and chilling.

You’ve hid in shadows,

all of my life,

acknowledgement unwilling.

 

I am the moon,

with passions bright,

your fire sears scars anew.

You wax and wane,

and spin my world,

‘til I don’t know what to do.

 

I’ve seen your face,

a thousand times,

you’re fire and I am ice.

You’ve broke my heart,

so many times –

Let go – I’ve paid the price.

Kshanti

Lotus

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My heart is Kshanti.

Scarred with forbearance

from the actions of those un-awakened

to the compassion from transformation.

It beats with the patience,

the waiting and longing,

of better times

to come.

The rhythm

of the beat

is endurance;

a longing, that one day,

awakening will open the eyes,

to the universe.
