Sitting alone, I was rekindling
the spirit of togetherness.
I was thanking God
for igniting the fire in me,
for letting off the prisoner,
for breaking the chain of illusion,
for letting off the dust of my inner almirah,
for taking me to the depth of truth,
for moisting my arid heart.
For letting me sit,
face to face with thee,
in the silence of overflowing leisure.
I am sitting alone, yet not lonely.
