There is a brilliance
Within us
Most don't see
Locked away
Hidden so sadly
In the depths
Of our souls
And darkest regions
Of our minds
A brilliance
We are so
Closed off to
Because
It is something
Within ourselves
We are afraid
To face
A truth
So absolute
That once seen
Cannot be disputed
A light
So bright
It's blinding
So peaceful
And full of power
It's enlightening
A truth that will
Shake and wake you
And rock you
With all
It has to teach you
Filled with
Knowledge
And strength
Meant to bring you hope
And enlightenment
Yes this is a truth
That truly does exist
Within you, me,
All of us
Yet its a truth
As I said
Most never see
For to see it
We must search deep
Within our souls
Face fear and pain
We would rather forget
Break down walls
Built to protect us
Face emotions
And memories
We have before
Let scar us
Yes through it all
We must keep digging
Until we find the light
Of the truth
Of who we really are
Learn from it
And above all
Embrace it
All of it
Flaws and all
Accept the fact
No one is perfect
Not even you
And let the truth
Guide you
In all you do
