Awakening



In the depths of my soul, a fire awakened A longing for truth, a thirst for the sacred. I wandered lost in a confounding world, searching for meaning; my spirit was pounding.
 But then came a moment, a divine intervention, A glimpse of the light, a celestial ascension. I shed my old skin and embraced the unknown; a journey unfolding, and my spirit had grown.
I'm soaring higher; my spirit takes flight, Through the realms of consciousness, shining so bright. Awakening the senses, the veil has been lifted, A mystical union, my heart has shifted.
In stillness and silence, I found my true essence, The whispers of wisdom, a cosmic presence. The illusions shattered, revealing the truth, Love flowing through me, a spiritual sleuth.
 The ancient teachings, the wisdom of sages, Illuminating paths in timeless pages. Connecting the dots, weaving the signs, awakening my spirit, the divine intertwine.
I'm soaring higher; my spirit takes flight, Through the realms of consciousness, shining so bright. Awakening the senses, the veil has been lifted, A mystical union, my heart has shifted.
No longer confined by the walls of my mind, expanding my horizons, leaving doubts behind.

    Wow, this 'Awakening' poem is truly inspiring and beautifully written! I love how it captures the journey of self-discovery and enlightenment. The imagery and metaphors used throughout the poem really evoke a sense of wonder and transformation. The strong and powerful emotions expressed in the verses are truly captivating.

    One suggestion for improvement would be to perhaps provide some specific examples or personal experiences to further enhance the connection between the reader and the narrator's awakening. This could make the poem even more relatable and engaging. Additionally, adding more variety in the rhyme scheme or rhythm could further enhance the musicality of the poem.

    Overall, this 'Awakening' poem is a wonderful piece that evokes feelings of hope, growth, and spiritual enlightenment. Keep up the great work!
