Dark Night of the Soul
Heart’s sorrow peaks just before dawn
Holding faith firm, if we but yawn
‘Tis the moment our false self dies
No need then before fear to fawn
Earth life is harsh, so our heart cries
But the lows soon transform to highs
Know oh hermit, we’re living light
Succumb not to ego spawned lies
Love aligned, imbibe bliss delight
Humming within by day and night
Choosing to soften attention
We soon garner spherical sight
Life is a dream, why take tension
Save love, nothing deserves mention
Dwell not on that that comes and goes
Assured then is soul’s ascension
