Beyond all sight
Blind to the world
Yet always thereThat which has not
By its own nature
Can only takeThat which gives
Of its own nature
Is the jewel of creationBrilliance pours forth
Covering the vast nothingness
Spreading eternallyUntil something grabs hold
That tiny, fragile seed
It strugglesThen something arises
The seed takes root
It embraces the darknessThen it comes forth
And reaches up
Toward the gemThe seed may live
Or it may die
It does not matterThe only reason it came
Was because
Of the seat of lifeThat which gives
By its own nature
That is its beautyIt gives not because we ask
But because it is intrinsic
And it cannot help but giveWhat brings life
Can also bring death
Such is creationOnly in our minds
Is the world so black and white
In truth it is neitherBoth colorless
And all colors
Both life and deathThe hidden truth lies further
It wakes within
Beauty shrouds knowledge
Truth transcends our walls
