Sleep, My Darling...

Sleep, My Darling...

If only we could see
How blind we are
If only we could know
How truly kind we are...
If only we could be
The ocean of peace
 That rests
Beneath the restless mind
Beneath 
Our thousand painful scars

If only we could see
Just what we are,
If only we were willing 
To heal those wretched scars
If only we could see
The Love beaming
From our radiant heart
Like a fire
Brighter 
Than a thousand stars

If only we could trust
That all is well
If only we could know
That all is One
We could peek through that rigid crust
Far beyond the ego's shell
Beyond the walls of our personal hell

If only we could see
That all is One
If only we could know
That all is well
Perhaps we could awaken...
Awaken from the spell
Until then,
Sleep, my darling...
Sleep well
