The Search For Self. From The Indian. Poem by Michael Shepherd

The Search For Self. From The Indian.

Rating: 2.1


I read about the Self
and sought it
but it said nothing

I worshipped the Self
but it did not smile at me

I surrendered every action
to the Self
but it only watched,

said nothing,
did not smile

now I am silent,
watch, and smile:

how can you find
that which you never lost?

You can find something you never lost but what you think you have lost(illusion) by just peeking inside your heart! Preets
