Did you see the sparks of light within?

G-d himself was shattered, without skin
And did you see the sparks of light within
The hidden wood where dwells the holy dove
The darkness which to human soul’s akin

God himself was shattered, without skin
Each fragment though a shining light was dumb
But did you see the sparks of love within?

Around the world, the mystics then began
To seek the little jewels that once were G-d
In darkness which to human soul’s akin

Each fragment was eternal in its span
And yet was helpless as on it man trod
Though some might see the sparks of light within

Well hidden from the world of human sin
Afflicted by G-d’s death; now weeps the dove
Why is darkness where we must begin?

Can we bear Reality or Love?
Can we live, survive the coming flood?
Yet we see the sparks of love within
The darkness which to human soul’s akin
