Seeking Euphoria - 17th April 2026

By Sheranga Ranasinghe

In the rules of the universe

I surrender to…

In the depth

Of the heartbeat

I dive into…

In the shadows

In dim lights

That I step dance to…

I seek

Euphoria...

In the softness

Of the day light

Finding my skin

In the embrace

Of a strong breeze

Brushing my curves,

In the yearning

Of the rain drops

Seeking my lips

I seek Euphoria

In a sparkle and

Smile,

Giving birth to a star,

In a whisper

In the dark

That deciphers

the shades,

In the rhythm

Of the sway

That ignites a storm

I seek Euphoria

Its the forging

Of the strong

Of the senses

Of the breath

Its the forging

Of the brave

Of the bold

Of the beautiful

Its the forging

Of the scars

Of the imperfections

Of the uneven

In which I seek

Deep and deeper

I find

The light, the fire

I find

The elements,

And the crumbling,

In the music

Of a heartbeat

Within me

In the depth

Of the being

Of creation

Itself

In the Endless...

I shall find

Euphoria
