For the first time in her life,
she stood unsure
of what tomorrow would bring.
She finally chose
the noble path of surrender,
dove into the abyss,
releasing
her desires and beliefs
as she entered
the empty nothingness
of eternal bliss.

To know is not to live;
life is indeed to be lived.
Expectancy squelches
the harmonious yet invisible ripples
of creation’s waking tides.
She realized and acknowledged
that she was not the wave,
not the ebb nor the flow.

She reveled
in the emptiness
of Glorious and Divine Love.
