Awakening

When consciousness first became self aware what did it do?

    

Dark is the depth and measurement of my will

It burns into the emptiness of my existence

The quasars of Orion can not pierce it

Deep stars are the same as my soul

Night shall only fall this once

Breath of awareness

Light

your poem comes to a point ... of light :) this kind of deep thought; connection to our world and beyond; then wrapped in a poem that is precise, mysterious and enlightening all at once makes for great reading experience ... love this kind of stuff!!

Awakening requires inner aching with fear dissipating and hope in the making. A powerful write.

The inner ache of the fear of detachment
Detachment and dissolution are twins of bodhi
Bodhi is the realization we are all one
Thank you Sami for your comment..
