In the midst of darkness
I make a choice,
it is up to me.
Upside down,
as above
or below.
I am not misled by
the butterflies
or the volcanoes.
From tomorrow,
I can be happy
and tell myself of
this happiness.
0r, gaze at the difficult
barriers, both past and present.
Then share my sorrows,
all the way to the
edge of the universe.
It is up to me.
I think I will choose to live
this life, here and now.
Along with the lotus
and the mud.
But always with a full heart.
