Sleep eludes me <br />The vulture of my wants was devouring my soul <br />It was feasting and ravaging with a savage delight <br />I was choking in my own vomit <br />Desires, Greed, soical conditioning and id <br />Exhausted and lost in my self constructed maze <br />Prolonged by ill begotten beliefs <br />Of the twisted pathway of my life <br />The acrid stench of my putrefying decaying being <br />Wretched my soul <br />And I threw up <br />A foul, green, viscous, bile fluid <br />All that was me <br />All that I was <br />All that I wanted to be <br />And that set me free <br /> <br />You filled my empty hollow being <br />Exhumed from my decay <br />Now <br />I am a child once again <br />Looking at wonder and awe <br />At all You have created with so much love <br />All You have touched and transformed <br />From dust into a shimmering display of fireworks <br />I quiver with the resonance <br />Of Your cosmic consciousness <br />And rejoice every moment that You have gifted me <br />Ommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......................<br /><br />Renu Rakheja a.k.a Tranquil Ocean<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/god-exhumed/
