Hi Belibaste, inspired by your poem i dared to do (or try) a musical adaptation of those beautiful words, it´s a little homage to your inspiration. I would like to share it, specially dedicated to FOTCM. Thanks a lot Belibaste.

Thanks Belibaste for sharing your creativity, which is clearly based on deep life experience.
And thanks to Tykes who felt moved to make a song with it.
I have been pondering it a bit.
Is it ok if I ask you, Belibaste, something about it? Often people make something creative, but I sometimes wish I could ask them something about their creations - so now I have a chance because you are accessible! You, are free to answer or not, of course!
I will put my comments below in square brackets:
Children of the Universe
Orphans of love, sobbing alone in a dark room
She's always been there, wiping your tears
Children of trauma, hearing your father's doom
She's always been there, soothing your fears
Seekers of care, in search of an invisble mother
She's always been there, were you seeing her?
Loving your doubts when you lost faith
Loving your life when you wished death
Giving you hope when you saw darkness
Giving you strength when you fought sadness
Helping you learn from your mistakes
Helping you soul when put at stakes
[I think you meant "your" soul?]
["put at stakes": is that similar to the expression "put to the stake"? In other words is this a reference to the time of the Inquisition when a person was tied to a stake and burned? In this poem, a soul is "put to the stake" figuratively, that is, it goes through deep suffering, often due to mistakes by the personality?]
Respecting your choice and your biterness
[spell check: "bitterness"]
Respecting your anger and your blindness
Showing the path when being lost
Showing the light when facing ghost
[I was wondering which is most what you meant here: "facing A ghost" or "facing THE" ghost. I was just thinking that the article "a" or "the" can change the meaning quite a bit. Did you have any particular ghost in mind?]
Helping you create when you seek destruction
Helping you awake when you cherish illusion
Caring gently sister of sorrows
Caring deeply for brothers and heroes
She was always here, did you see a glitch
when you turned your back for the wicked witch
She was always here, did you pay attention
when seeing yourself as pure perfection
Divine Cosmic Mind, God or Universe
She's your companion, your guide, your consciousness
Mother of each, the poor, the small, the weak
Loving you all, petty, silly or meek
Just waiting you empty your cup of fear
To fill it with the sweetest elixir
Open yourself children of the universe
To the loving voice of the life Goddess
