The light went out? No.

You have to light them.
You're not too small, too weak.
Everyone has the power to fix things!
To-perfect, not too hardened
from suffering.
Karma? It is not empty algebra.

Opening the heart comes back twice.
Opening the heart gives birth to stab wounds
leaves scars on the skin.

Don't ever show them.
Worms exist - they do!*

They will eat you, deprive you of light,
and in the shade of the grain
they won't take root.

*The sun turns the pupils green.
