The Cave
The opening of your heart lies within a cave
All that is not, lies awake in your dreams
Bleeding with inconsistencies
Dying without belief, Illusions of the self prevail
Only stars can free you now
What happened is not what is, The sunlight only comes when the self ceases to exist
Trapped forever in a dream, The path lies within
Follow the light to the darkness, Free yourself from its spell
Bathe in the kindness of trees, Breathe out the self inflicted pain
Wash away that never was
Only then will the cave cease to exist
