Grace be you,
Peace deceived you,
Love enveloped you,
Time consumed you,
Hate destroyed you,
Anger burnt you,
Age wore you,
Pain tamed you,
Happiness faked you,
Freedom invited you,
Illusions showed you,
Life lived you.
Greed ate me,
Selfishness ruled me,
Ego blinded me,
Joy excited me,
Tears sobered me,
Emotions motivated me,
Praise drank me,
Criticism hid me,
Fear crippled me,
Hope expected me,
Habits played me,
You separated me.
Sorrow saw we,
Impermanence breathed we,
Gratitude confessed we,
Compassion sang we,
Generosity gave we,
Patience revealed we,
Meditation danced we,
Awareness stripped we,
Emptiness smiled we,
Wisdom acted we,
Dedication defined we,
Buddha hood “just” we.
