Dweller of our heart

In the cave of our heart, God Himself dwells,
as the light that lights all lights in this world.
God’s language is love, which ego misspells,
hoping we’ll be in winds of desires twirled.

So dark lust or love, which one do we choose,
determines either descent or ascent
and by sidestepping each ego spawned ruse,
our aura glows on granting joy consent.

Look not at form but at God’s light within
the heart of every living thing there is,
the sinless intent with which we begin,
breath by breath, we radiate a bliss fizz.

We’ve said to the ego our last farewells ~
In the cave of our heart, God Himself dwells
