Within my heart, I carry a gem A compass that continually guides me Through storms that rattle My light doesn't dim During stillness' healing, I'm set free At these times, I know There is a gem hidden Inside us all Unless it isn't bidden Does a spark linger there A spiritual gem abiding Waiting to be unearthed To illuminate all dark paths Both near and far away In quiet or in noise In every breath we take The gem waits and waits

There is a spiritual gem lying in each one of us. In some, it may be lying dormant, while in some others, it is sparkling. Dear Sara, glad that this gem is guiding you as a compass in your voyage through turbulent seas. So beautifully composed.
