The Light of Enlightenment
I chased the road
which my heart chose;
in the name of the path of enlightenment.
Then, I entered a room
all dark and cool;
in the name of the room of life.
There was nothing that I could see
rather than a light which accepts me;
in the name of the light of acceptance.
I stepped forward, towards the light,
all attracted by it's beauty-
eager to know where it came from;
I stepped into it.
Now all I could see
was a white path,
long, beautiful and wide.
I started walking step by step-
wanting to know how the road was
wanting to experience every second;
in the name of path of experience.
At the end,
I realised all the hurdles that I came through-
all the good times I enjoyed.
How I came through the feeling of
from nothing to everything.
Then, again I saw the
light of acceptance.
Still white, beautiful and stunning.
I once again stepped into it-
laughing on my self
and realising how selfish I was,
to be wanting to experience
the strange adventure again, which I just completed;
in the name of the adventure of life.
