Spirituality And Loneliness Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Our destiny is not in dispute
Our vessel is eternity
Our being is nothingness
Our existence is unconditional Love
Our story is born out of the womb of faith, hope and Love
It's only through the emptiness of the heart that we are complete
Our true nature is the spirit
Our fibre is submerged in total awareness
It's the wealth of nothingness that addresses our needs
Now, what is Loneliness?
It's the loss of touch with your emptiness (nothingness)
Loneliness is poverty of the spirit
Loneliness is born out of a materialistic view of life
Everything is subjected to the test of physicality (time and space)
And nothingness is discarded
It's the emptiness of silence that holds the cure to loneliness
One has to learn to come to grips with the true face of reality
And find solace in the bowl of existence
One has to let go
Of all the acquired knowledge
And be empty of knowing
It's only then that true knowledge will be availed
Happiness, peace and Love
Faith, hope and Love
Humility, compassion and goodness
Gentleness and kindness will be undressed
And Loneliness will never be known
