The Three Marks of Existence

How does the rose open its heart and give the world its beauty? It bathes in the light, the love of the sun encouraging its blooming You be the ground where nothing is sown and plant the seeds of love to grow Cultivate the change you seek Love is not a song sung by the weak When in the trap of doubt, remember it’s a cloud This to shall pass and fade, impermanence to pain What is the body but a shadow of a shadow of our love In which the whole universe resides There is only wind in that well And there have always been keys in the cell It takes compassion to confront your pain It takes strength to be vulnerable enough to float on the rivers of shame Be ground, be crumbled You've been stoney for too long Like wild flowers grow where you are Let your heart burst, let it explode Like wild flowers grow where you are Let your heart burst, let it explode Like wild flowers grow where you are Let your heart burst, let it explode Go
