THE POWER OF LOVE
To Save Us From The Dying Of The Light
“What will happen to this world
If we all keep on trying to live
With our eyes and hearts
Tightly closed in a drought of love?”
—Yeshe Gyamtso
I do not know where this
Grief comes from that is
Tearing at my heart so intensely
That my body shakes with heartache
As tears flood down my cheeks
Like rain, lightning and thunder.
There is so much good in this world
And in the hearts of people who
Are doing their very best to be
Living a life worth living even when
Their burdens are so great that every day
Is a journey through realms of pain.
I must be tapping into the well of
Grief we all are carrying deep inside,
So carefully hidden even from ourselves
As the fire burns, as the wheel turns, as
Each one of us strives to overcome and
Heal ourselves before the dying of the light.
I know that I will always choose
To care, even when my own heart is
Breaking to feel the painful woes
That burn in lonely hearts everywhere
Because if we all turn away in
Trying not to see, to bury or forget
Then the healing power of pure love
Which is our one and only salvation
Cannot flow where it needs to go
And all the beauty and the goodness
We carry unseen inside will rust away
And we and our world will wither in
A drought of love and dying of the light.
