I am my haven's king
I cryBecause I know not when to try.
I fear
Because I see temptation’s spear.
I doubt
Because I am lost within, without.
I hate
Because I‘ve closed my beauty’s gate.
I love
Because I breathe below, above.
I dance
Because my Goal no more a chance.
I sing
Because I am my haven’s King.
Sri Chinmoy, God’s Glance and God’s Grace, Agni Press, 2006
