Free verse

Inhale 
Take a deep breath,
Follow the trail
It would lead you into the unknown depth
Like delving into the deepest ocean trench 
You give up all your senses, yet you feel no wrench 
And through the blindness you will know light
You will then realise that seeing doesn't always mean sight 
In your deafness you will find the sweet music of silence 
Enjoying as you are enveloped in the melody of solace 
As you go deeper, you understand the joy of stillness
Revealing life in its ever present infinite bliss
Nothing beats the joy of knowing you are primary 
Knowing that unlimited happiness is yours for free
In this moment you see, hear, and feel the self imposed boundary 
Exhale 

Inhale 
Can you see it now? 
The insanity, we call sanity 
The illusions, we call reality 
Do you hear it now? 
The limitations we call definitions 
Several words and their fatal interpretations 
Can you feel it now? 
The pain of the suffering earth 
As it rotates towards the brink of its apocalyptic death 
You now know, you have all the right answers 
What you were lacking were the right questions 
Exhale 

Inhale 
You now see the flood of insanity drowning humanity
You see the insanity in every form, in every wave 
Only humans seek to "make a living" 
How can you make what you already have ? 
Is it possible to build a house you already live in ? 
All in an effort to ensure that we are never poor
we keep acquiring more and more 
Forgetting that no matter how much we crave 
There will never be enough space for riches in the grave 
Exhale 

Inhale
Remember the words of Rumi
Keep breaking your heart till it opens 
Like bright light from the highest of heavens 
Let your light shine through your mundane reality 
Until all that's left now is wonderful, eternal 
Bare, naked, pure and true
Once you are stripped of all doubts and fears, you will ask
What will I do? if I knew I could never fail
Exhale
