Blue Hole

Like a blue hole in exquisite caves
There's much beauty to behold in you
Only, your blue is of sadness...
A symbolic hole is the emptiness that exists
However, your soul is a glorious abyss
One that emotes hope, courage, love
One that absorbs radiant sunlight
Warming your blue hole, your heart

Your heart, the center of your being
It beats with gentle kindness
Amidst the blindness and peril of humanity
Blindness that leads to corruption and war
A treacherous world, but hope is not gone
It is not a complete afterthought or notion
Surfacing when least expected....
Emerging at times when really needed...

Hope is still there, your blue hole real
Your blue hole is your amazing heart
Share your joy, spark a flame of triumph
Prove the strength of your blue hole to all
Dive into your bluehole, dive into yourself
Reveal a new you, be true to you 
Discover the hidden jewels you failed to release
The treasures that will ultimately make you whole
