Ignorance Is Bliss
Awakening Is Messy
I used to think he was my world That I was born for him And he was born for me So it was hard to understand why he didn’t understand me This went on for a really long time Many years and many many tears later I understood he was not the one that was meant for me Now I see him with different eyes And I wonder why God decided to show this to me now Why God entertained my thoughts for so long blissfully Because now that I have been awakened Now that I know what I know The awareness is killing me I wish I had been that ignorant girl as I had been all along The new found knowledge has been an awakening yes But this awakening has turned my innocent joy into shambles Now all the peace is destroyed And the result is now I know that a third dimension exists And my state of bliss has evaporated with it And I wonder how many are there who still live like I used to Live in the first dimension still Welcome to the third dimension Have you reached here yet? Do you know this exists Do you know there are more worlds beyond the one you know here and now What is the meaning of awakening in your dictionary Have you been awakened yet If yes, how does that look to you Have you experienced knowledge Is it the same as what you knew Or is it maturity, wisdom and understanding? Welcome to the third dimension now Awakening is amazing It is also rude When the world as you knew all along as existing Comes crashing down on you Have you been awakened yet I had my world come crashing down on me Not once not twice but rudely thrice During the awakening process First my idea of religion collapsed burning all the bridges around me Then my world of friendships collapsed all about me And finally my world of relationships also collapsed And then as if all that didn’t matter at all My sense of identity my sense of who I was was rudely plucked out of me Now how many layers have been peeled I feel like an onion And what’s left of me Is not even the baby that was born yesterday I feel empty I feel naked I feel free I finally feel me Fresh breath That is the power of awakening Have you felt that yet? How do you feel? Do you feel peace Do you feel joy Do you feel bliss Does inspiration flow through you endlessly Everyday like it does for me Who are you today Do you know who you are yet What is your identity Is it your profession Is it your passion Is it your family Religion Status What is it Who are you Have you been awakened yet What are you Do you understand yourself What makes you the ball of fire that is you Do you feel like you finally get it That you no longer are a part of this world you live in Even though you live here Do you understand you are here just a visitor A bystander without pain You can flinch for others who are in pain But you no longer care about being inflicted with pain or pleasure Because you understand it’s all temporary Nothing here is real or true or to be feared There is no eternity in this world Awakening is also bliss But awakening is what we all need In order to live in this world we are passing by If this is not the eternal truth Then what is Death is not the end of everything as we have been taught It is not like we die one day and are lost forever No that is not the case We are just saying good bye to our bodies on earth our family our friends our relatives And passing on to the next dimension that has been prepared for us Or is it? It certainly feels like it Are you awakened yet? Trust me on that This is not all there is to life Even though it may seem so This is not all there is to us entirely This is not entirely entirety This is just a passing glance in all of eternity Have you been awakened yet What do you understand Do you have an experience that makes you understand what it is Like a mirror we stare at everyday This shows us what we want to see Except once you are awakened The mirror is not your friend anymore What you see there today you didn’t see yesterday Now you see a new person staring back at you And you don’t know who that is You don’t know how this happened over night But it did and now you’re left shaken and in bits torn and shredded to pieces Unraveled Finally free And yet now you have a new identity You are stepping into a whole new world that is unknown and absurd and you are once again a child blindfolded even though you are not And the new world is daunting Is open Bizarre And you are left wondering Should you step into here yet Should you peek in feel the air a bit Before you take the first step Should you wait and see if anything unfolds before you Should you patiently wait at the door endlessly before you step in and go exploring There is a huge pause It feels eternal As if an entire eternity just sidestepped you Entirely Now what should you do You are left wondering Like a bitch Where lies your reality Have you been awakened yet How did it feel Have you felt raw naked and bleeding Has eternity engulfed you Has it been friendly to you Or are you walking on eggshells now Does your reality shine or suck? How does it feel to you Welcome to the third dimension where we start all over again Bold and beautiful Raw and naked Completely peeled onion That has nothing remaining Except maybe the last layer that is left And wondering if this is still me Reality is awakening Dawning in you and it sucks to know the truth Ignorance was bliss indeed Welcome to awakening The truth of this world is finally dawning on you just as it is dawning on me Welcome to reality The third dimension called awakening This is the world we all live in Rotten, damaged and done!
