Day 39-43 - That I want thee

Day 39-43. Jog - missed partly due to travel and partly due to laziness.

I was feeling sleepy at around 10:30 pm and was ready to sleep. I saw a book I had picked up last week - 'Selected Poems' of Tagore. The first line of the page I opened just touched me. It was from the renowned Gitanajali. As I started reading the rest of the poem it just moved me. I was so elated. It completely reflected my mind. It was pure bliss. I want to reproduce it here, as I read it, to experience it again in the future.

THAT I WANT thee, only thee – let my heart repeat
without end. All desires that distract me, day and
night, are false and empty to the core.

As the night keeps hidden in its gloom the petition for
light, even thus in the depth of my
unconsciousness rings the cry – I want thee, only thee.

As the storm still seeks its end in peace when it strikes
against peace with all its might, even thus my
rebellion strikes against thy love and still its cry
is – I want thee, only thee.

Amen!
