I Know Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

I know the state of the human Soul
Whether in sorrow or in happiness
The human Soul is deeply wounded
Imprisoned in a life sentence of despair
A life of scientific logic and religious fundamentalism
A life of fake news and false prophets
A life full of hatred and violence
A life riddled with poverty and disease

The human Soul yearns for Love
Love for God, the Creator
Love for yourself and Love for others
The human Soul yearns for peace and freedom
The human Soul yearns for humility and kindness
The human Soul is looking for the eternal path
Beyond our everyday squabbles
The human Soul is looking beyond the edge of reason
Beyond the limits of our imagination
Far beyond the elusive boundary of mathematical expansionism
And religious exceptionalism

The human Soul is looking beyond the everyday noise
Into the pit of Silence
Where existence is redefined and replenished
Life is a servant of Love
And Love is the eternal existence
The human Soul is looking for the "you" in "me"
And the "me" in "you"
The everlasting light of the universe
The sacred covenant
The human Soul is looking for Love
