what are you?

what are you dear?

in the heart 

what are you?

not as you think 

for certain

not as a measured thing 

that has this quality and that

not like this in the least

in the heart 

you are as you truly are 

which is unborn

beautiful

made of only pure life 

untouched by form and mind 

untouched by thought 

untouched by even one thing that 

can be named 

oh heart friend, 

yes, you are perfect 

it is true 

and what is to make you think

otherwise is this spell of maya

it plays and moves as the world 

it creates dream substance 

a shadow over the heart 

that sits clear as the most precious 

jewel

come find it my friend

seek not what the mind is after 

and dive into the heart 

like a one that is to die to what is known

and you will be freed of suffering 

in this light 

love is as still waters 

so pure and clean

as God in it's right state 

be in this light 

and let the shadows go

know yourself

then all is set right
