Awake my energy, guiding spark
Send me soaring; to purpose, on mark
Alert, alive to all that can be
Seeking, shining, as far as I see
Awake my mind, you bittersweet tool
Which leads one true or to play the fool
Weakened thoughts grasp, away from the core
Leave us tired, hungry, wanting more
Awake myself to who I can be
Uncluttered vision resides in me
Potential and greatness that is I
There are no limits under the sky
Awake myself to my truthful worth
Love,light, perfection; peace, joy and mirth
Creative fire; gifts deep inside all
Intuition beckons, heed its call
Awake my heart and step into love
Melt away young scars and rise above
Confusions kiss, once led me astray
I turn myself to mute in the grey
Awake my truth, thy grand unmasked self
Hidden, buried, found; authentic wealth
Our life’s purpose, comfort, joy and ease
Guidance from within, eager to please
Awake my spirit, fears set aside
Soul’s perfection, fervent, loving guide
Flowing love, our birthright, path, desire
Flame burns brightly from this heavenly fire
