All and none ....

Predawn 
Somewhere in Gulf of Mexico 

The sea under 
The sky above 
Waves, froth, motion, turmoil 
Stars, clouds, silence stretched 
Where do I see?
What do I write? 
My intellect compressed in the vastness 
Space, Stretch 
 Screams, Sounds, Stillness
Sail, Slow, Swift 
Solitude, Speck, Soul
Surrender, Submit, Stay! 
Solemn..
Surreal ...
Stupendous 
What do I see ?
What do I write ? 
What do I feel ? 
What I absorb? 
What I reflect ? 
What I understand? 
Something? Everything? Nothing ? 
This moment of being .......

Hope is just a single ray...  Longing...

This empty space is familiar to senses. Silences beyond measures and fences .. Not familiar - is my destiny! In this space between you and me? Only time will reveal .. Wheel of time goes on and on .. Beauty manifests to me from the shore Splendid sunrise, sunset with sanguine brilliance Tidal highs and lows Silver moon lit dancing waves.. Grandeur of this silence! But I yearn for fury of waves. Strong  enough to pull me in . Carry me to other shore,  where you exist. Through contradictions and mysteries you hold Touching, and caressing dark, silent caves. I yearn to be meager drop  in this mighty sea All engulfed , drowned , frothed As part of this silence myself Silence that just is .. -manpreet
