Sleep Tight

A lotus flower is baptized in pureness

among filth and the world

can't fail to see its beauty

it's secrets

its untouched petals

it disappears every night

as it drowns in the water

to hide from the dark

who will never stain its innocence 

Every day it emerges from the darkness

without a stain 

pure, untouched, the lotus flower is reborn daily

You are a lotus flower

You are a lotus flower in this pond called life.
