The Fleeting Journey

We may try to make a place for ourselves

Unaware of the vast nothingness around

The cosmic world is a fleeting dream for us

Traceless and just a reflection of an illusion

We talk of soul residing within our body

Or, the body searches for an abode in the soul

There is no absolute truth in this transience

We belong to the universe and chosen to travel

Without knowledge of the journey’s destination

If we awaken the consciousness we may know

Some essence of the mystical world and oblivion

Our fallacy, we are disconnected from the ecosystem©
