Dharma, Pt. 1 (Into the Sacred Waves) - Kartikeya

i slowly step into the shivering waters

as they embrace me with a deafening tide

«fear not!»

cries an ethereal voice from above

«let go!»

says the feeling inside

i shall inhale the liquid,

being breathless and disconnected from a life-source

i want to see through the waves

to find a path to survive

the waves lead me from a lake into an ocean

through a river, granted by nature with life

i fear the new tides, i fear the force

as the unknown, for i fear that it will leave me to die

i now inhale the liquid

but i feel that i am breathing in air

i now see through the ocean

glinting with a million flares

once a blissful soul,

racing from a distant world

seeking a new home

in countless sparks of love…

once a blissful soul,

racing from a distant world

seeking a new home

in countless sparks of love…

i am brought into this world

a newborn child, one of the countless destinies

i shall struggle to survive

for once i set my steps into the sacred waves

i am brought into this world

into the sacred waves

i shall follow the unknown

into the sacred waves

i am one of heaven’s sons

into the sacred waves

i shall wash the fears away

into the sacred waves!
