Broke my house

 In a sunlit field

Under the galaxy of stars

I built my house and I called it home.


Where the Wall of emotions

holding the Roof of thoughts.

Where Doors of desires

welcoming guests of preconceived notions.

Where Windows of fake wisdom

were draped in Curtains of confused psyche.

My ideal place to thrive.

Everything under my control.

I was very happily playing inside.


When life naturally unfolded

It shook my world upside down. 

One day I ran out of light

in my house so tightly packed 

of me and me everywhere.

Nothing can escape and nothing can enter

against my will, opposing my wishes.

The darkness I fought

with all my fiery might

This place 'my home'

which I called my whole world.

In the whirlpool of wisdom

My world my twirling and shattering in pieces.


I ran to fix the walls

but the storm was so strong

Broke the wall open 

And I found I was wrong

The warmth of nature 

The lights of the stars

were waiting patiently for me with open arms.

True happiness wasn't far.

There was light and light everywhere.

The darkness has vanished

I broke my home with my own hands

I was truly enlightened

When I banished the house of doubts and fear.
