Close your eyes, now pause and feel,
A distant bell rings -- soft yet real.
One side holds silence, calm and deep,
The other, chaos that cannot sleep.
The noise you hear, from far and near,
Reflects the world, both hope and fear.
Now feel within -- what stirs your core?
What voice inside do you ignore?
A moment arrives, serene and still,
Let thoughts be free, bend not your will.
The silence now begins to teach,
A breath so pure, beyond all speech.
What lies within -- embrace, explore,
Your inner self holds boundless more.
So think, feel, dive into you --
What you become... begins with you.
