Even if we think we don't know
Something guides us from within
And no matter how far we go
We'd do it all over again
The voice is the only one we have
We follow whatever the course
We adapt even if we hurt ourselves
Because we know the alternative is worse

Among the myriad of distractions
I have found the only treasure
It’s within me and seeks my attention
The noises around are just a trap
To keep me away from myself
Many distances I have traversed
Before reaching this destination
No more distractions
They have been negated by silence

There’s serenity here
Words have no meaning
Everyone’s speechless
Surprised with the calmness
Clarity of inner calling
Voices never heard before
All the time there
Yet, oblivious, all this while
Narrating the inner story
From the core
What we are capable of
Living half the life
Now, the other half comes forth

Hello!
Does the inner voice respond?
Not paid much attention to…
Drowned among the noisy environs
Trampled, when it tried to speak
Did you say a hello lately?
Or, aware, it exists…
Give it a chance to speak
And listen to what it has to say
Say a ‘hello’ when you get some time…
Maybe it’s worth a listen

Is God around us
Is he external
Can he feel for me when he is outside of me?
That answers it.
No He is not around us?
No He is not an outsider
He is within us.
Deep inside us
One with us.

Because when we close our eyes
And shut out the world
When we shut out the din
And hear that inner voice
It is HIM
It is home coming.
