Lost to Find!

I yakked, yakked and yakked forever
All day, all night and all the time in between. 
When there wasn't anyone around to yak one day... 
I heard the world around talking to me.

I talked, talked and talked for long
Somewhere, Anywhere and everywhere in between. 
When there wasn't anything to talk about one day...
I listened to the birds speaking to me.

I spoke, spoke and spoke for a while
To anyone, everyone and no one in particular. 
When there wasn't anyone left to hear my speech...
I heard the trees whisper to me.

I whispered, whispered and whispered a lot
To bees, plants and the soil in the pots. 
When there was nothing left to whisper about... 
I observed the flowers wafting in breeze.

I looked at, smelt and touched the flowers 
And walls, doors and shelves full of books. 
When they remained stoic, just staring at me... 
I sensed the depth of silence in them.

I roamed and remained silent, with nary a noise
Around, along and afar from my home. 
When my presence on the path was no more special... 
I felt a surge of joy springing within.

I stood there still, not seeing, hearing, smelling anything 
And nothing was left to taste or be touched. 
When this and that wasn't at odds anymore... 
I experienced a presence, engulfing my self.

I lay there silent, shattered to smithereens 
With all that was mine, found nowhere around. 
Then everything was me and I was all things....
I knew my Self and realized Life, the way it is!
