Spiritual Gem Inside Me
Within the hush where fleeting thoughts decline,
I find a gleam that never seems to fade—
A crystal truth beyond this frame of time,
Not shaped by fame, nor pride, nor accolade.
Its radiance glows in silence, not in sound,
A whisper beyond thunder's vain display;
It roots itself beneath the surface ground,
And guides my failing feet when skies turn gray.
No eye can view the jewel that I keep,
No hand may hold the weightless gift I bear;
It guards my soul in both my joy and grief,
And lifts me through the shadows of despair.
O, gem divine, my still and sacred flame,
You teach me love, and free me from all shame.
