Hai-ku by Meru

There great treasure lies,
but with it your very soul...
to fritter away!

Look into the eyes,
of all the people you've loved...
there you'll find your life!

Miracles exist,
when great love refuses to...
acknowledge the end!

All those things you love,
one day you will lose them all...
to see what matters!

You know where to go,
and who will be there waiting...
for their wayward son!
