Dichotomy

When the Sun sets
On the unconsciousness 
Where does the soul look
What does it see
What does it seek?
A glass of mistakes posing as pinot noir
An accompanying warm plate of toasted nuts
Insisting that there are no mistakes - just lessons!
Down below at the sea level
A plethora of things 
That let go of you 
Whether you let go of them. Or not!
A faint ghost of an ego
Lingering around or perhaps dissolving into nothing
When the Sun Rises
On an elevation, an evolution, an ascension.
When endorphins become a store brand
Made in house
Chuck that glass of mistakes
Down the drain.
Why let a spirit taint the spiritual?
The elixir that’s there, just for asking!
Let the Sun never rise
On that unconsciousness again.
Let it just usher the being into the white light of bliss.
That unfolds beneath the noise in the mind.

Version

Sometimes the elements play along
Spraying droplets on the windshield
While they mimic and manifest
The tucked away insides.
The little rhythm lets out a sigh
One that precariously hangs
In between a shatter and a shelter 
“Are you mending a broken heart?”
One hears voices.
Heartbreaks are supposed to make one hallucinate
And hear the unsaid 
The misty glass dons a symbolic guise
And a little voice that questions 
Goes speechless 
In a Good way, one can guess.
An arch of color springs up in the greys ahead
Just when the soul was supposed to shrink and shatter
It soars like a falcon
Spreading its wings.
Sometimes the cracks let in mysterious miracles 
And what has to contract magically expands.
What’s an existence that didn’t love, didn’t lose?
What’s an existence that didn’t shatter?
The other turn of turmoil could transform into treasures 
Meant to share, let go and revel.

So, listen up little voice that questions 
It’s not broken. It is a breakthrough.
