Master
Vahid Nazemi
In the silence and solitude — once, shout your own name,
Set your whole self free — undo every rope, chain
In solitude, feel free — fill the heart with hope again,
Turn yourself to nothing — to release life’s strain.
Laugh aloud in that nothing — clear out your brain,
Wash again your whole soul — in clean running rain.
So then spin, turn around — feel joy in your soul’s vein,
Become a master, aware — to create worthy gain.
