Authority of Being

Authority of Being

The sun doesn’t stop shining

because some are blind.

And birds don’t stop singing

because some are deaf.

And the heart doesn’t stop loving

because some are afraid.

So what are the things you need

to express to continue being who

you are; the things that have nothing

to do with being seen or heard?

What lets the flower in the forest

blossom though no one is watching?

What keeps you being you?
