Oh, My First Love

The first divine love I experienced through a beautiful feline.

Oh, my first love,

The four-legged angel in the cage,

who liberated me from the prison of anxiety.

When I see your glimmering eyes,

The light from your eyes enlightens my soul.

It flows like a river of consciousness that makes my body light.

All in this universe is just energy, I learnt.

The body is impermanent, but the soul is not.

Your eternal love makes the earth glow.

I wonder how beautiful nature is,

You are the proof of the beauty of the truth.

Where am I now? I asked.

I am in heaven with boundless love, I realized.

Your innocence spreads through my family,

released us from the darkness of sorrow and anger.

You are not just a pet, but you are the God of love and beauty.

You changed my definition of God.

From you, I learnt that God is everywhere and at every moment.

I fell in love with you at the first sight,

And I dive into the limitless sea of peace.

Dedicated to my cat, Putih. I have loved him my entire life.
