The ·yúgen· that you possess is so powerful,
it overtakes your thoughts, your emotions;
the universe speaks through you.
Art has strong ·duende· to you,
and music fuels your soul.
You dance in the sunshine,
you dance in the rain.
You dance through the sorrows,
the misery,
the pain.
You understand people,
the young, the old.
You know how to warm the coldest
of souls.
You don't let the bad things overpower the good,
and you surprise yourself doing things
you didn't know you could.
You see the evil, you see the bad,
but it does not disturb
all the good that you have.
People think you smile, and you do,
but you also observe.
You read people from their expressions
and actions
and words.
'Wallflower;
You see things.
You keep quiet about them.
And you understand.'
····················
·yugen· a deep, mystical, moving understanding of the universe too deep and powerful for words.
·duende· to be deeply moved by a piece of art, or literary pieces.
