Be With Your Darkness

Be, in the darkness
Be, with your darkness
Let it be
See

Don't be afraid, have no fear
Don't be afraid, for there, indeed, is nothing there

Darkness, the ultimate in nothingness
Let it envelope you, see what comes
See where nothingness takes you
For in the emptiness there is much fullness
For it is in the emptiness that you will find your truth

Be, in the darkness
Be, with your darkness
Let it be
See

There is more to see in your darkness
There is more to be revealed than by light
Light illuminates the surface, darkness has depth

In the darkness there is doubt
We doubt our strength, we lose our trust
Yet there is nothing, just you with yourself

Be, in the darkness
Be, with your darkness
Let it be
See

In the darkness I sometimes find a child
She is afraid, she is crying
In the darkness, she calls out, to be found, to be held

I know this child of my darkness has strength
I know she is wise
I trust her and am thankful for her company

We sit, together, in the darkness
It completely surrounds us
She sees me and says,

Be, in the darkness
Be, with your darkness
Let it be, and
See

...for there is greatness inside you
