You don’t pray?

So that’s what you think?

When my body is weak,

When I search and seek,

My strength is in You.

When fear attacks,

When I feel lack,

My strength is in You.

When the ground shakes,

When my heart breaks,

My strength is in You.

When my Soul weeps,

When despair creeps,

My strength is in You –

Only You.

The obstinate fire of the hoarding dragon

Is quelled by weeping over its lonely plight

You have an idol?

And it’s not yourself?

We can all put aside our differences

For a story of separation

You cannot uproot a tree

By pulling at the topmost branches

Cutting branches won’t do –

The roots must be pulled up

From the darkness

And brought into

The Light

And sometimes

Instead of words

I weep

You who knowingly face the darkness

Believe you are shining a light

Through actions that must remain in the dark

You who walk unawares in the dark

Can see only your bestial illusions

Believing you are shining a light
