Coping....

A soulful whisper to the dessert...

You were once a cold frozen ocean
Rejected what you were,
Moved ahead experimenting
Like a child in the blissful forgetfulness of previous hours' harsh stumble
Let yourself dance to the rhythm of the winds

Also embraced the hot smiling Sun.
Just to get transformed into 'You'.
The entirety. The completeness.
So that I can meet you and appreciate.

Few know their destination
And pass through
Getting lost in your sandy blanketed
Non-directional and endless spread

Almost familiar with the world
But a Stranger to self
Heard tales of Dervesh who wander in your maze
Losing everything but finding themselves

You give me the power to embrace the warmth and Also freeze in the wired-ness of life
Choose to move on like you
Maybe someday I will find completeness like you.
