Be
The heart speaks lies
Even the shadows whisper
"Fear, doubt, anger!"

Within the deepest chasms of your-self
Lies a room with no floor and no ceiling
Above you the stars shimmer and sing in the infinity of space
Below you a great dark sea in its inky depths all shadows slither and squirm

Between them lies the brightest light in the universe
Its hum brings warmth and comfort to your tired bones
You circle the great light with some uncertainty
Until its flimiliarity rubs against your fear


You stretch your finger outward to touch
The soul pulses beneath you
Shouting now above the whispers of shadow
"Join me! Embrace me!"
In each  vein and artery, through every tendon, muscle, and nerve
Your soul exclaims the meaning of life!
