Here I go…

My fading obsessions,
A book of confessions…
Is all that I leave behind!

Here I go,
Here I go to end the chase
Here I am on a new escape
It’s me; my new-found youth,
The embrace of warmth,
The sway of hope…

Stretching the wings of reveries
As if they were never shattered…
My soul breathes in a sea of life!
Timeless dreams transcend trivial desires
And here I go,
Here I go on a new escape.
My fading obsessions,
A book of confessions…
Is all that I leave behind!

It’s just me, and my soul
And the soundless howl
Of the new, inviting world
And the warm, buoyant fragrance
Of the land unknown!
I salvage my long-lost solitude...
And my oneness with the creation
Resonates a sense of freedom!
My soul breaks free
From the appalling past;
The Karmic cycle of longing and lust
And here I go on a new escape.
My fading obsessions,
A book of confessions…
Is all that I leave behind!

(I wrote Here I Go on the 26th of March 2009 as an ode to my first book 'Chasing Maya'.
