From the raging fire:
feel only an ember,
from the majestic falls:
drink only a drop.
From all the sky:
pick one single star,
and from all life:
see only ourselves.
We dare not look into the light,
for we can not see in darkness.

Beautiful and deep! Love every line of this poem. The paradox of the last two lines is awesome. Thank you for your entry.
