WAKING UP

Waking up,
Is nothing like we think it will be.

Thought has no part in it.

Letting go,
Into the profound silence,
Of who we are,
Welcomes us back,
To where we have always been,
And have never left.

Yet, here we are,
Gazing with wonder,
As if for the first time,
At the simplicity,
And limitless nature,
Of everything that is.
