   Despite the many virtual and real friends 
if you feel hollow on the inside 
lonely — chilled by the shape 
of frosty desolation you stare at — 
Know: you are being invited to go within 
to sit in communion with Self; the wisdom 
of ages securely lodged in its core  
 
 
It waits for an encounter with you 
who believe yourself to be helpless 
It longs to reveal your courage to you 
It says — look at me, trust me, for 
you and I are one. Come, hold my hand 
find all your hidden treasures  
And in their discovery be healed  
 
 
Pamper self with forgiveness 
love and compassion because, like 
everyone else, you deserve them too 
Merge into me and become whole 
Rest a while in the newfound peace 
then emerge unfragmented to set free 
the gentle power generating within     |
