Silence program
For that one moment of stillness
I watch to catch every breath
dissolving in relentless thoughts
For that one moment of stillness
I break closest bonds, in regret
hoping never to look back
For that one moment of stillness
I wait impatiently for mind to bow
to a litany of instructions
For that one moment of stillness
I know I will return, unbidden
to this life threatening chaos
For that one moment of stillness
I willingly will walk across
barriers invisible
For that one moment of stillness
I have come to you,
because I cannot live anymore
I watch to catch every breath
dissolving in relentless thoughts
For that one moment of stillness
I break closest bonds, in regret
hoping never to look back
For that one moment of stillness
I wait impatiently for mind to bow
to a litany of instructions
For that one moment of stillness
I know I will return, unbidden
to this life threatening chaos
For that one moment of stillness
I willingly will walk across
barriers invisible
For that one moment of stillness
I have come to you,
because I cannot live anymore

Beautiful........ and very uncomplicated. I like it.
Somehow i wandered to your blog. I linked to your poem from here: http://ishas.blogspot.com/2009/01/for-that-one-moment-of-stillness.html
I assumed that you were talking about the 'silence program' offered by Isha! :)
@Ani - Thank you :)
@Anto - Yes, I am talking about the Silence Program
