In The Silence Of Oneness Poem by Mystic Qalandar

In the silence of oneness,
I asked You for the flame of love—
But the heart that could not give it
Became my own reflection.

In Your absence,
I sought Your warmth;
And within the hollow palms of my being
A new sanctuary of fire was born—
A flame bound by nothing,
Yet breathing through every particle.

I longed for Your transcendent touch—
And found it
In the tranquil lake of existence;
Still, yet awake—
Where silence itself
Becomes a wave of awareness.

I sought Your eternal melody—
And the void
I once called "emptiness, "
Turned into a song—
The very voice
That recognizes its reflection
In all things.

I prayed for mercy and awakening—
And saw that mercy
Shining through my own eyes.
The "I" that was
Became "You"—
Mistaking its shadow
For light.

The knower, the known, and the search—
Not three,
But the echo of one truth—
Beholding itself
Beyond the veils of being.

I desired Your boundless love—
And the moment I desired,
I dissolved.
For love was never separate,
But the reflection of the Creator—
A single breath
Between You and me.

Love—this very breath—
Flows beyond all forms,
Through every vein of existence.
It is the whisper of unity,
That, within the noise of multiplicity,
Becomes silence—
And is then heard again.

Seek—until
The "I" dissolves.
Ask—until the question
Merges with the answer.
Pray—until
Only One remains—
The silence
That recognizes itself,
And becomes
The song of love.
