Consciousness

Thoughts become friends 

When identification ends

The mind is no more frozen

With chunks of the chosen 

Consciousness seeks flow

When it’s free, we grow

The light it brings

Dispels shadows of things 

When the mind does not store

Consciousness comes to the fore 

The arrow of time retires 

No more burning moments in its fires

When the mind empties, we grow

Into heights, leaving thoughts below

When undivided, without parts 

Consciousness, revealed in all hearts
