I have been slowly hollowed out
Becoming an echo chamber for my soul
Constantly facing the reality of truth
Discovering new Islands
In the sea of my subconscious
It’s a ‘Happening’ !
Discreetly, quietly, acoustically chilled
Stuck in a crystal prism
That reflects hues beyond the spectrum
Not even colours
But feelings manifested in light…
Reaching out my hand
Touching nothing
Yet feeling everything
Like a rush of freshly oxygenated blood entering my brain
Washing away all my fears, preconceptions
Everything I thought I knew…
What is there left to believe?
Only Grace
There are no answers
For emptiness needs no questions
Just being
Waiting loving accepting
One with the Universe
A simple lone atom of consciousness
Amongst billions
The abstract reflection
Of God’s glorious creation….
