There is something I am not telling you
There is something I have not told anyone
It's a secret but not a secret
Can you tell what it is?
Can you see what it is?
I've known it for a long time but I wasn't sure that people wanted to know it
Have you figured it out yet?

Ok, no more suspense, here is my little secret:

"I am beautiful"
That's all I wanted to say.

" What do you see?
I am nothing like you, you are nothing like me.

I am sight with no sound
I am both fearless and profound.
I am dark with subtle light
I am more than your simple sight.

What do you see?
What is my mystery?
Seek with your mystical mind to understand my sacred divine."

" Today I know with a certainty why I create - I do it
to share the myth that is my experience in the
hopes of healing myself and making others
aware of their own experiences and its power to heal them
and give their life value and meaning."
