LOVE

She closed her eyes.
The unrelenting waves crashed into the untouched rock.
The ocean was calm on the surface.
But she knew its uproar.
It was there, in front of her an undivided, undamaged whole. Complete as the universe itself.

She could feel a stir within, something unknown,
equivocal like the smile of a sleeping child.
And the time stopped, universe paused.
She could see herself evolving towards the divine.
Like a mystic, enthralled by its immaculate presence.

She was apprehensive. But can she stop?
In split second she was soaring towards the unfathomable.
The rumpus waves hurtle and rupture with an ecstatic cackle into tiny shiny specks.

She could hear the storm.
