Arjun to Krishna

My hesitant steps found their way,
At your doors they wished to stay.
The mind could not a reason find,
Yet to end the groping blind
A knock it managed to decide.

The gates flung open and you stood smiling
Million doubts glimmered in my eyes shining
Thus you acted promptly
Offered just your hand
For Your Feet was to be hidden
Until I was ready.

So a friend, a guide in you I saw,
Yet those boundaries I never could draw.
For a bond invisible was always around
An intimacy belonging to the realms beyond.

And I have no clear memory,
Of things changing slowly..
When did ignorance let go of its hold
And these hands learn to fold?
When did pride cease to glow
And this head learn to bow?


Then You began revealing,
A mystery You were no more,
In You,the reason of my being
The depth of my core.
Amidst the strife I began to see,
Finally I learnt to truly be.

I was your audience, struck with awe
I was your actor, as the world saw.
I was the weakness, despair's mire
I was the strength, the rising fire
I was the question, the seeker's cry

I was the answer, the Divine's reply.

I was the rider or being driven
I was the warrior or the weapon
I was the flute or the music too
Or I was nothing but just You.
