Fortunate Light

The beginning of a dream
Burning every lie
The dancing shadow isn’t pleased
It needs to crawl back into my mind

Fortunate I can see
When vision betrays my need
So fortunate I can be
When existence succumbs to greed

Nothing ever forgetting love
The pain that gives me sight
Because everything given up
Brings me closer to inner light

Fortunate I declare
This awareness will break me down
A fortune I can’t compare
Because everything kills me now

Pleading for anyone
I pray for illusion’s arms
With a knowledge I know is wrong
And contradictions that do me harm

The shadow coming home
Now I recall this fading dream
A single flame now stands alone
So I wake up and burn the seeds

Fortunate in the light
When actions remember why
My fortune will give me sight
The shadow no longer hides
