Just Write

For a moment you are suspended
Detached from the world of man
You are at the end of your journey for peace
Peace of mind
Peace of spirit
You’ve emptied your cup
Waiting to be filled
You become one with the surrounding
And open yourself to creativity
Setting imagination free
You listen to everything and are inspired
The harmonizing of minds
The sharing of knowledge
Learning
Understanding
Digesting
Identifying…
Nirvana
You meld into the rhythm of sunrise and sunset
Where all that is demanded is that you listen
You look
You feel
And just be
For a brief moment you are not jacked in
You’ve found a purpose beyond survival
You’ve found yourself
You’ve heard your soul speak
Veritas

I came empty
I was emptied
I think I needed to be
Then I drank and was filled
Now a melancholy descends
As I now have to reconnect
The nervous system and synapses of the system
Eagerly reconstructing lost connection
As I struggle to hang on to that state of suspension
So now I just write
