The Unseen Current

Aug 12, 2025
2 min read

By Ishanavi Sharma


In the depths of life, 

a current flows, 

unseen, yet felt 

as it ebbs and grows. 

A force that shapes, 

yet remains concealed. 

A mystery that’s sensed, 

yet unrevealed. 


It carries us along, 

through joys and fears, 

through calm and turbulent, 

through laughter and tears. 

It whispers secrets, 

in the darkness of the night 

and guides us forward, 

with an unseen light. 


Like an underwater stream, 

it flows beneath 

the surface of our lives, 

where worries and doubts breathe. 

Yet, it’s the unseen current, 

that truly holds the sway. 

Shaping our destinies,

in its own gentle way. 


So, let us learn to trust, 

this unseen force so true 

and let it carry us, 

to places anew. 

For in its depths, 

we’ll find, 

a wisdom yet unknown 

and in its flow, 

a peace, that’s forever sown. 


And when the waters calm, 

and the surface is still, 

we’ll glimpse the unseen current, 

that lies beneath the will 

of our deepest desires 

and our highest dreams, 

a reflection of our soul, 

where love and truth beam. 


Like a river’s gentle flow, 

it carries us along, 

through the twists and turns of life, 

where right and wrong belong. 

And though we may not see, 

the path that lies ahead, 

the unseen current guides us, 

through the darkness and the dread. 


So, let us surrender, 

to its gentle, loving might 

and trust that we’ll be carried, 

through the dark of night. 

For in the unseen current, 

we’ll find a peaceful shore, 

where love and truth awaits us, 

forevermore. 

And when we finally reach, 

the shores of our destiny, 

we’ll look back on the journey, 

and see the unseen current’s sea 

that carried us through the struggles, 

through trials and through strife 

and brought us to the harbor, 

of a peaceful, loving life. 


The unseen current’s wisdom, 

will have taught us to be still. 

To listen to the whispers, 

of our heart’s deepest will. 

To trust in the unknown 

and to have faith in the night 

and to know that we’re guided 

by a loving, gentle light. 


So, let’s honor, 

the unseen current’s 

might and trust that 

we are being carried, 

through the darkness 

and the light. 


For in its gentle flowing, 

we’ll find a peaceful, 

easy way, 

and in its loving guidance, 

we’ll seize the day.
