If the curtain hasn’t been found
If you get bored
while the dark is still not torn apart by light
then stop to seek
stop the desire and wishes
forget all the sensations expected
ignore all the way taught.
Ignore all the suggestions.
Off. Just Dead. Die. Turn off.

(…and slowly but surely
when all desires extinguished
maybe the light will be seen clearly).

Wow these words just hit me in the face today. I needed to hear them more than you know.
The darkness has a way of gradually creeping in and before you know it, Bam there it is.
I have to be reminded to take a pause. Thank you for these words.
Light of peace, bliss, and enlightenment come in in its own way. Just relax, just enjoy life as it is, as you have done well so far.
So sleep and wait things out??
Depending on you, if you want to achieve or have something for outer interests then desire and wishes are strengths, on the contrary, to get to know your higher self, then passion, desire, and hope are obstacles.
Hmm… it’s about balance again 🙂
I’m a pretty classic curtain friend
Thanks, Lado. Just appear here as an illustration, my friend.
Lovely poem. I really enjoyed reading it.
Thank you very much for the compliment, Gloridaze

No problem, my friend. You deserve it.
