LIVING LIGHT
Though we dwell in dense matter
And move about on land
The mirrors of fear are working
Against all we can understand
Light has the power to grow
And expand territory within
So that TRUTH can be known
When sight waxes dim
Learning to breathe through pain
And stay in uncomfortable spaces
Allows the trajectory of embodiment
To occupy uninhabitable places
Our journey is not for the weak-hearted
We are warriors sent to fight and win
Tunnel systems of terror hide in wait
Though death may take us, we rise again
We are living light radiating to pierce
Strongholds of doubt and fear
Basking in the heat of LOVE"S fire
Transmuting darkness into cheer
