Power to recognize

Mind will maximize

Awareness will contract

It’s a heavy impact

On bliss, we no longer cognize

In its place, struggles arise

Who is to blame?

A seeker who remembers fame

The world’s recognition

Can’t serve every ambition

The ego believes otherwise

Chaining us to an imaginary prize

The power to recognize

Memory uses as a disguise

Used sparingly, there will arise

Awareness, an illuminating sunrise
