Many of us have been touched by love
Many of us have been touched by light,
There are many who feel deeply spiritual
But sadly many have felt none of the above at all,
Refusing maybe to let any of these things in
Worried somehow they may end up hurting,
Afraid to go for it and take risks
If you do this then ask why do we exist,
Is it not to feel every form of emotion
Like duality within all its mindful commotions,
The pleasure, the pain, happiness and sadness
The love, the hate, the light and darkness,
So don’t shut it out, invite it all in
Do not give up any of these things,
We must open our hearts, our minds, our souls
From when we’re young to the day we grow old.
