There are flowers hiding in the secret recesses of my soul
Without them i wouldn’t be complete and whole
Fed by joy and tears, happiness and fears,
In my encounter with pain, i emerge to live again.
I now rise to face the world again with a pure heart
Trembling yet steadfast to make a fresh start
I hold in my soul the flowers the made me whole
To strengthen me and encourage me to finish my goal.
From the pain of my center, i have survived to remember
How life is a blessing, how to treasure every encounter
From my sore and tender heart, a great lesson to all i now impart
That joy and sadness, love and hate, light and darkness, you and i, are one and not apart!
