TOKEN of LOVE

SD 1.3.34 Comm. "He [Lord Krishna] thinks  'Let this jiva see me'.  If the merciful desire of the Lord arises, then he acts in this way."




I was seen ~
for a minute fraction of time,
in less than an instant
I felt stripped,
the talkative thoughts of my mind
were choked,
for in that single moment,
the blind obscuring my soul
dropped,
and time, as I usually perceive,
was not,
the walls, the shadows,
a labyrinth of beliefs
about "me",
just stopped,
and knots known
to be binding my heart
were dissolved.

I was seen ~
then skies of emotions
distilled in one drop of time,
just like the heart
condenses
the immensity of love
in one tear,
and I felt intensely loved,
I was seen ~
there was light
meant not for the eyes
but for my heart.

When that dot of time had elapsed,
I became greedy,
and I wept,
for one more
token of love.
