The Liberated Soul




I fly by
Here and there
Like a miniscule
Molecule,
In the depth 
Of the deep ocean,
A deep blue and green
Into which I dive,
Drown ,
Then come up
Floating like a hollow log.


The light within
Twinkling,
Filling in the vacuity,
The emptiness
Inside me,
I try to find out a meaning 
To me,
Of my  being
Here,
The purpose
Of it all.


In my efforts to demystify
Myself,
My soul delves
Into the unending deeps,
Trying to reach out 
To infinity,
Wanting to hold 
The invisible,
To grasp 'it',
Reaching as high
As the shining stars.


Amidst the shimmering stars
The soul dances,
Immersing into
A whirlpool of winds,
With its wings
Spread out,
In a haphazard motion,
Almost cyclonic,
Crazy,insouciant,
Intoxicated, drunk on freedom,
Liberated!
