Birth

Day 2,750, 02:44 • Published in India India • by Terciopelo



Lacking the faintest sense of recognition of the self..
Yet I slept peacefully wrapped in the cocoon of my ignorance..
True bliss with myriad dreams..
Floating like a boat on the tidal wave of peace and serenity..
My thirst was quenched..(Or was it subdued..?)
And then the weather changed..
It grew stormy , dark and dangerous..
Sliding out of a tunnel..
I could see light ahead..
But where was my world..?
The memories of a time full of love & bliss..
And then..
Another emotion..
Fear
What is it..?
My chest hurt..

And then there was Light.. cold & cunning..
And then Warmth.. Confusion, Grief & fear intermixed in a immediate supernova of warmth & love..
Yet it was just an illusion.. I’ve come to accept..


Twenty odd years have passed since..
&
Yet I long for the world I was once a part of..
