The Perfect Emotion Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

It's not laughter
Or sorrow
A smile is close to perfection
But perfection is made up of the truth
It's not joy
Or even excitement
The perfect emotion is an ocean of possibilities
The perfect emotion is not quantified
Or qualified by logic
The perfect emotion is not a construction of the physical realm
Or a state of peace
The perfect emotion is not dilatable or punctured by sorrow
The perfect emotion exist independent of your situation
It's outside the reality of your present existence
It's a lake brimming with all realities
The perfect emotion is not a condition of the mind or heart
The perfect emotion is not laced with ecstatic outburst of laughter
Or soiled with the pungent smell of sorrow
The perfect emotion is nothingness
It's in this state that you're neither happy nor sad
Your heart is rested on the cushion of Silence
And your being is a lake of tranquillity
You exist purely for Love
And you're the presence of God
You are dressed with the spirit
And your mind, body and soul totally united
You are the definition of harmony
Totally invincible to the naked eye
You exist in the realm of light
You're neither here nor there
You're the fertile ground for life
Your existence is unknown
But yet you're fully awake
You existence is eternal
Your presence is Love
