Pearl and Purpose
I thought you had brought it out of the night,
I thought it had come to the light,
I thought you had journeyed to bring it from the deep,
I thought it had found its way to your room.
The priceless doesn’t sound,
It waits to be unbound and found,
A door of opulence is opened,
It heralds a new dawn.
Redemption is the pearl we desire,
How much of a price does it require?
We have searched the books,
The sages say it’s a price in the singleton of voice.
I look for the pearl that’s hidden in me,
Redemption will aid me to see,
I’ll sojourn through time’s lane,
To find the ones missing in my chamber.
