Emptiness and Color

The essential of the material world is emptiness.
The emptiness is essential to the material world.

Just living,
simply being,
Is enough,
a truth I'm seeing,
To myself,
I wish to say,
In every single,

passing day.
I've lived entwined in dual thought,
With every battle,
I have fought,

But now,
reflecting back on me,
I see the truth I failed to see.

You're fine just as you are,
A shining, solitary star,
Doing what you can,
it's true,
Is all that's ever asked of you.

Being alive,
a wondrous thing,
In every moment, let it ring,
A melody, both pure and bright,
Guiding us through day and night.
