Rajashee’s poem unveils a journey of enlightenment where inner light dispels illusion, revealing a path of kindness and fading memories in a vast cosmos, exclusively for Different Truths.

Clouds of illusion disappeared 
As the illuminated mind appeared 
Kindness, Compassion, and Gratitude
swim like stars in thousands of mountain lakes 
Pristine, clear streams nourish the lives of the Milky Way.

It's a cosmic walkout 
Being unaware of the time 
Me, an unknown wanderer, walking through the way.

As I pass, memory slips from my hand like raindrops on my way.
All alone I walk, unnoticed on the edge of the Milky Way...
