Tidal wave after tidal wave,
the turnings of the mind
they
rise and fall, rise and fall,
and don’t let me float above
all that drags me below
the surface of my soul.
I try gasping for precious air,
but only my ego gets inflated
and my mind screams-
‘I really don’t care!’
I put up my hands in the sky
and I keep begging the Divine
for the ‘right’ signs.
Alas, all it comes to my heart,
is filtered by my mind,
who is almost never very kind,
and distracts me till the end of time!
I ask You for the Direction
where I can find Perfection,
but You give me only suggestions!
I know it’s all Part of Your Divine Play,
I know You watch me from the bushes and the hay,
I know You always want me to pray,
but hey, it’s time for You to let go,
and reveal Yourself in Thy Holy Name!
Without Your Grace,
we are all directionless,
not knowing where to go,
what to do, how to act,
what to feel!
Without Your Grace,
we are like shooting stars,
running out of fuel,
soon to be put
out of existence!
Oh, Dear Friend Divine,
it’s only Your Grace,
that can show us the Direction,
on the way to Perfection!
