In Quest of Eternity

Life – is an enigma
Oscillating between certainty and uncertainty;
Entangled in the illusion of love and relation;
Unravelling the mystery,
Forgetting we live in deeds, not in years;
Puppets in the hands of divinity;
I am in quest of eternity.

A noble heart is priceless,
Knowledge is a great treasure,
I have none, but I feel I am blessed beyond measure;
Kissing the drops of rain,
Smelling the breeze of ocean;
Amazed by the touch of butterfly;
Is it not the wonder of divinity?
But, I am in quest of eternity.

Life and death play hide and seek every moment,
Do not wish to die unknown, unwept
Life – is a quick sand;
Sometimes a cruel mockery,
Knowing well death is the only certainty,
I am in quest of eternity.

Oh God in your love I find comfort,
In your creation I learn lesson,
Sharing, caring, sacrificing without expectation;
I do not want salvation;
In every birth I wish to serve humanity;
Then will I find eternity?

Oh God,
Make me a soul with simplicity,
Devoid of complexity,
Sympathy, trust, compassion, faith are the virtues;
I need in totality.

Oh God,
In them I see eternity.
May be, then my quest will be over and;
I will find eternity.
