Fanaa (Annihilation)

From the waters
From not knowing
From being neither awake
Nor asleep
From simple awareness

We dragged ourselves
To the shore
To look at the sky
And the grass
And the mountains
With a new vision

And we stood up
And walked beyond
Our heads full of ourselves
We were, we thought,
Separate and free.

But now,when
Insignificance drowns
Our deemed reality
Our tired selves
long to return
To our lost abundance
