Hidden Splendor

True life
Designed by love
Descended from heaven
Bright light that shines deep in the soul
Splendor.

Just like
The rarest pearl
Found after ample search
At the bottom of the ocean
Splendor.

It waits
For the great day
Of liberation when
You finally connect with its
Splendor.

Elate
Will your heart be
When that rare pearl is found 
No longer locked, but free to glean
Splendor.

That day
You will know hope
For you will know, all souls
Shine with that bright light deep inside
Splendor.
