Billowing, sunless-grey expanse
Flooding my miserable soul
Oh Sadness, filling up my doubt
Drowning every hopeful thought
Soaking barren desert land
Emptiness, Oh my soul
Gathering clouds of celestial vapor
Washing my abundant dread
Rivulet streams flow peaceful, quiet
Away, my darkest mindful thoughts
Rushing down to churning ocean
Emptiness, Oh my soul
Topaz sky break forth
Over emerald hills
Ruby, amber, golden arcs
Fill my hopelessness
Creamy rays of happy light
Glowing warmth of fire-heat
Filling up my soul
Ignite the dreams that dying lay
In the graveyard of my doubt
Arise, my Soul,
Leap. For joy outshines my desperate gloom
Spark the fire-stoked energy
That reads dread doubt’s firm eulogy
Today the clouds have parted
After rain, the rainbow
