Now I am Awake

For years I have been in slumber

But now I am awake

The clock ticks slowly and I hear it now

For goodness' sake, now I am awake

Pop! Goes the bubble

At the onset of trouble

What is it that we seek?

Yes it is, yes it is...

Another bubble to fall asleep.

But the churning mind causes agony

With that how can I, be at ease?

With spiritual knowledge residing inside

The shambles cease to exist

For now, my long long nap is done

For goodness' sake, now I am awake!

When pain shakes you and wakes you up

The deceitful hibernation ends

And then you realize, what a game it was

It's time to make the mends

Validation, I shall never seek

Into infinity, I got to peek

What an amazing day it was

The most amazing of all feelings

The purest of all emotions experienced

This is what I was craving for

For goodness' sake, now I am awake

Now that the fog has cleared

The road ahead is seen

I'm no more gripped by fear

I unfold quests, as I steer

On experiencing life, I'm keen

Serenity is clearly felt and seen

Searching here and there for bliss

But it was never found

Until that day, when I found my way

To a place within, deep down

The best place to live is in my core

And now I lie torpid no more
