Shunned into One

From Me to You

Bharat
2 min readNov 23, 2020

I prayed to the Lord to heal my Loved ones
Yet God shunned me
I praised the Lord for my material success
Yet God shunned me
I thanked the Lord for the Love others gave
Yet God shunned me

Death took loved ones again and again
Yet God shunned me
I lost my world. I begged for help.
Yet God shunned me
They broke my heart, I cried to the Lord
Yet God shunned me
In suffering, I searched for answers
Yet God shunned me

I deleted the Lord, the Universe and World
Yet God shunned me
With no more options, I leapt into the Abyss
Yet God shunned me
When I hit rock-bottom, only to find another within
Yet God shunned me

Until one day, I reflected
On the comings and goings
Of my so-called Life
Who was the common one, who witnessed laugh & cry?
Was it the forlorn little old Me?
No! No! No!
The question really is: Who is the Me?

The Me sparred an absent God
The Me felt totally drained
But, the Me can not be I, for the Me can be seen.
So I did what was required,
I shunned the crazy little Me

In that moment of Divine Embrace
I realised something of Immense Fun
Through Being, Knowing and Blissful Grace
God and I were simply always One

And what of the Me? Is it happy and free?
Oh, it’s kicking around. Life goes on.
It knows it’s “Not Two”
So, it writes little witty poems
Like this one…from Me to You.
