I look in the mirror,

and what do I see?

A face staring back,

that’s simply not me.

 

I open my heart,

and what do I find?

A limitless space,

compassionate and kind.

 

I open my mouth,

and what tumbles out?

Harmonious words,

with truth and no doubt.

 

I search in my head,

what goes on in there?

A radiant mind,

pure, like clear mountain air.
