The Eternal Flames of BECOMING....

You dream so high..

Too high,

For me to follow

You try ..

Try to reach up the skies

Those skies,

Ohh so hollow!

I wish you could see...

See, through the eyes of your mind

What lies beyond the glitterati

Of this illusory material world!

A thought crosses my mind

Why we All..

Aren't of a kind ?

What dictates the differences

Of taste and perception?

In a world with so many types

With deliberation...

It occurs to me slowly..

The seed sown in mind

At every life's beginning..

Grow into a tree

Bearing flowers with seeds

Of exactly similar types..

Continuously nurtured with desires

In every successive birth,

The Roots of this tree

Keep strengthening , multiplying and accruing

Same quality seeds over so many lives..

Conditioning the Subconscious such..

Which keeps getting shaped further

By more new experiences of current Life..

Creating layers on older layers of Mind!

And the journey of becoming goes on and on

Till awakened from the Sleep and Slumber

By a Significant event

That rages a burning desire to set the Soul free

From these Eternal Flames of Becoming...!!!
