Through a glass darkly

He who looks outside dreams

He who looks within awakens

Carl Jung

Robbed of a healthy childhood

Our inner vision clouds and dims

Left deep inside of our heart

Is a hole

We sadly forget the true meaning

Of

And yet

It possess us entirely

More and more completely until we face it

Inside of that dark well

A child is crying out

When our body hurts and we lack the skill to listen

Then that child screams louder

And depression is our clue

To the light and life we buried

And as we turn away

With a darkening gaze

Our souls become more and more tormented

But life has a wisdom sown deep inside of

All of this suffering

All of our pain

The answer

Stop running away

From the one who is seeking you

Turn instead to face

What has become clouded

Open your inner ears to hear

What has become

Both buried

And hidden in silence
