Guru, I Love You!

Guru, I love you!

“Guru, I love you,” you shout…
but do you even know love?

You throw yourself at my feet…
but do you even know love?

You run to touch my robes…
but do you even know love?

You cling to my words…
but do you even know love?

You follow me around the planet,
swear you’d do anything for me…
but do you even know love?

When you reach for my feet,
you reach for the divine within…
yet cannot let love sweep in.

When you reach for my robes,
you long for your light to be revealed…
yet cannot let love sweep in.

When you follow me around the planet,
chanting, waiting, weeping,
you call it devotion…
yet cannot let love sweep in.

So when you shout:
“Guru, I love you!”—
I silently ask you:
Will you let my love sweep in?
