The sacred feeling the universe in your eyesThe feeling of self a hazeBut a boundless connection to infinityIt comes, it lifts, then fades away,A fall that stretches, in disarrayTheories of life ripped awayAll instincts devoid of creativityThe sacred feelingthe moon in my eyes From my room’s windowI feel the celestial grace, a momentI carry out…

The answer is the simple thing deniedThe obstacle is you in your own wayThe present is tethered to the lifeless pastThe future wails in denial of the presentYou say things to others you want them to say to youYou hear echoes from them, memories fading like dreamsYou see things in the margins known only to…

[536] Wisdom of Reality

Renouncing living for overthinking,Renouncing reality for imagination,Contemplating the context for their contusionsTo forgo the feelings of their healingI am an owl that nudges,At a time when eyes adjust to the dark,A meeting point of dreams and reality,Where nothing seems clear, yet everything’s rightAn eagle of reality swoops,away the mystery of the owlI thought I saw…

Are we all that we rememberor does the forgotten find a secret hideoutAnd the lost history before love was inventedwhen will it resurface in our feelingsAnd the revolutions that couldn’t bebefore the ones that set us…

What escapes us every day tires usBut, is it keeping me alive?Eyes linger, mesmerised by stardustWhat escapes us every day tires usWarring feelings, which one to trust?A headless dove clutters my designWhat escapes us every day tires us But, is it keeping you alive? “NaPoWriMo Day 4: Today, let’s try writing triolets.

An aftertaste of when the mind’s apocalypse ends, blissRed lipstick on my soulA feeling that lingers in the infinite pastThe warmth of a past loverThe apathy to accept that it will not returnThis is the sound of the universea portal to another world where I bloom in the discarded NaPoWriMo Day 2: Today’s prompt asks…

![[527] Forgetfulness of Individuality](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/527.jpeg)
I dwell in the forgetfulness of my cosmic natureA spectacle unfolds, for all to witness.The gradual implosion of my beingFlowing state, now a distant memory,Lost, drifting in the vast ether ever-expanding I seek to learn about myself from another’s thoughtsTheir emotions, feelings, and situationswhen I could cultivate my own gardenand let my kindness sprout against…
