Empty Yet Full in Between
There are your eyes, ears, and heart.
I cover my eyes, ears, and heart,
constantly demanding that you open them.
With infinite patience and waiting,
in the space where time and space dissolve,
I fall deeper into the abyss of ignorance,
trapped in the valley of fog.
As if I have learned the whole world from a single ray of light,
as if I have realized the entire world from a single sound,
the torrential rain that burns my skin is frightening,
yet I only gaze at the flower petals kissed by the gentle drizzle.
Whether it’s a torrential rain or a light drizzle,
the falling rain moistens the earth
and silently melts the burning heart.
