Close Your Eyes To See Poem by Sam Sam

Close Your Eyes To See

Rating: 5.0


'Tis hard, I know, for a stern tree to bow
You're afraid, I know, for what's behind that door!

You think you're in love, I know
You don't want to leave, I know

You can't see with closed eyes, I know
You like the light of your sight, I know

But the boat you're sailing on
is mere a hypnotic hologram

Your skin is attractive to that rainbow
But your soul remembers where to go

Hold my hand; Climb on the boat of Love
Sail with no fear; wind makes the path easier

Pat with your hands on the ocean bed
'Tis the reality; everything else, so far, was dead

Now, do not be afraid, and close your eyes
Beyond this stage lies the real plot of life

Close your eyes as that's the only link
which lets you see everything.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
We are so much captivated by the colors of this world that we have forgotten the real light. But, the soul remembers its first kiss to existence; it is loyal, and it is to return to Whom it loves truly. So, we should never be afraid to turn our backs to this illusion. Only when we close our eyes, we see everything. Enlighten yourself with the light of Love, and there will never be darkness again.
