As I sink deep into the dark I stretch out to you,
As I fall into the void I call out to you.
Because you are the base on which I stand,
And you are the bed on which I lay.
In the depth of darkness I cry in silence,
But you hear because you always observe my pains.
The world stings with every rotation,
But I smile for you are my salvation.
Many times I hurt myself,
I fall to the traps of mortal emotions,
I get entangled by mortal desires.
But you never abandon me,
Even as I run to mortality,
You pull me back and guide my steps to transcendence.
From the world where nothing is absolute except pain, emotions and mortality...
You call me.
You cry out but I do not answer,
For I seek many mortal things,
And I stick to mortal thoughts.
You never give up on me.
Even when my heart is lost,
Even after my soul is stained.
You stand by me and hold on to the last strand of hope.
Everyone even me sees a devil in my being,
Chaos and destruction in my path.
But you see light and creation,
You see peace and comfort.
True I have none of these in me,
But you plant them in my consciousness,
Like they were there from the start.
You refine my black heart and pull me out from the void,
You rescue my from the pangs of death.
But even with your many efforts, I cannot help but wonder,
Perhaps life has other plans,
Perhaps my path is absolute,
Perhaps my contamination is absolute.
But I struggle as I hear that whisper in my consciousness,
I hear that question and I ponder,
But as existence is a mystery,
As tomorrow is a mystery,
This too remains a mystery.
And I will keep asking,
For someday an answer I might find...
What is absolute?
