Analysis of The Self-assurance
I have learned
Earned and grasped
From my life
Just the one power
It is the self-assurance,
Within my entity
That encourages
To move and bring
My dreams, into the reality
I did not use that power
To get better material life
I focused
And I focus
To the spiritual world
In that, one can find
Both things
To feed your body and soul
Outwardly I have nothing
Inward I have all things
It is a great mystery
But difficult to understand
I can breathe
Just having the colourful lights
I have become such a light.
