The world is within you

Observe it!

Yes,

Thoughts come to the mind,

But have you ever heard,

A separation of them,

Whether are lust or not,

'Lust is a warm fire,

And not being lust,

Is a cold water stream,

Lust burns me,

and the others as well,

But not being lust,

Heals me,

And the others as well,'

Identify the fire,

Generated by lust,

And also the cold,

Induced by not being lust,

This coldness is a relief,

Soothing, healing and,

A refreshing air,

That simplify your breathe,

People always run for,

That harmful fire,

But think for a moment,

Isn't that coldness,

Give you a happiness,

So have that cold shower.
