Notes About The Poem

" DIVINE LIGHT " MY PHOTO, ©

The Light Within

Oh, you doubting Man,
don't look at me from afar,
come closer
approach me 
examine me 
discover me.

Look, I open up to you,
there is no reason for you:
to doubt 
to mistrust
to be afraid of me

for

I am the source of light,
the same light that has illumined this world since
the beginning of time, 
the same light which 
is also enshrined into your soul.

Come nearer,
do not hesitate any longer
but
respond to my endless calling!

Please, 
look more attentively at me and you
will see the truth, 
the only truth: 
That 
you and I, so much alike, 
we are!
