244. Not because I do not love You
Father, it is not becauseI do not love You
That on rare occasions I wish
To stay all alone,
But because at times
I immensely enjoy the core of solitude.
But Father, if You think
What I am doing is wrong,
Unpardonably wrong,
Then I am running towards You,
I am flying towards You,
Father, for You alone are my Eternity's All.
Sri Chinmoy, Three hundred sixty-five Father's Day prayers, Aum Press, Puerto Rico, 1974
