Thread Name: BS: Poems that speak to you.
Subject: RE: BS: Poems that speak to you.
I am calling to you from afar
Calling to you since the very beginning of days
Calling to you across millennia
For aeons of time
Calling, calling
Since always
It is part of your being, my voice
But it comes to you faintly
And you only hear it sometimes
"I don't know" you may say
But somewhere you know
"I can't hear" you say
"What is it and where?"
But somewhere you hear and deep down you know
For I am that in you which has been always
I am that in you which will never end
Even if you say "Who is calling?"
Even if you think "Who is that?"
Where will you run?
Just tell me
Can you run away from yourself?

For I am the only one for you
There is no other
Your promise, your reward am I alone
Your punishment, your longing
And your goal.
