The Breath of Fire

Shambho

Sound of my master
All over in me

His breath in my being
That sharp heartful bleeding gong of Shiva

The fire of his energy
Reminds me of a time long forgotten

A future soon to come
An identity more real than my present one

Etched deep in my being
Unforgotten
In the lap of twilight

A journey more than this life
That I become weirdly familiar of

A homecoming
In his voice
In his breath
And his majestic presence

A homecoming
To a time I don't remember
But have spent considerable time in

A homecoming
To my lineage
To my roots
To my fire
To my being
To my master
