Om mani padme hum
Within
the Lotus
there is a
Jewel
Without
the Jewel
there is still
the soft petals
of a breath-catching flower
Within
my Body
there is
my Soul
Without
the Soul
there is still
the perfect fleshbloodboneswatercellsmoleculesatoms
of Divine Creation
Within
the Heart
there is
Love
there is no Without
there is only Within
and when I wander
seeking to be empty
proclaiming myself loveless
the farther I walk
the deeper Within I travel
until I can only come home
to Love
Within
and
Without
there is only
Love
