When you were Me


I breathed again
Consciously, the moment
I disengaged my mind
From you
And only then
I realized how much
You had grown in me
So much
That my body my mind
My arms and limbs
Felt heavy and sore
And all I could do
Was sigh and sleep
In that heaviness

Then suddenly
Sadhguru’s voice emerged
From memory
Fresh in my mind
And conversed with me
Told me that it was all in my mind
That my thoughts
I made them ‘I’
Let go, he said
Then you are free

Free then, as the mind
Only weighs in the fact
That you breathe in the
Here and Now
Not in the past
Or its memory

Suddenly I was cured
From all that misery
From the thoughts that
Made me think
I could not do without you
And ever since, I have found
My feet, my ground
And I swore
You will never
Take them away.
