Sometimes we feel there is nothing new under the sun
and then suddenly springs a friendship like this,
A flower. Treasures are waiting just
beneath the earth, if only
we looked for them.
My darling, the pain of growth can be excruciating
to emerge as a whole person as you thread your way
through the fire of enlightenment. The tunnel seems black
and foreboding, but the pinpoint of the light that appears as an
apparition is real. It is the true essence of life, and the manifestation
of all the perfection in you. Never be snuffed out
by negative emotions that mask its perfect illumination.
Dressed in your armor, you hack your way through darkness,
blindly trying to escape the void of the unknown. At
times, we feel penned in by the events of your journey. Be
still, watch and listen. Don't run away from the darkness, for
therein lies the answers to untold truths you already know.
The light may be there to guide you, but you have to first travel
through the dark to discover a more fully illuminated you.
For the hospitality you have given me,
you can tell me anyhting.
I will never break your trust, that I promise
No common words or songs will ever come from me.
Nothing can make such a thing happen./
For there will always be rose growing
in the depths of darkness.
