The light shines in the darkness
In the darkness
when masks slip
and grief is allowed to surface
when the chill of loss and fear
burrow their way
into fragile
and vulnerable souls
rendering them
exposed and bereft
Light whispers:
Love lasts forever.
In the darkness
when memories taunt
instead of comfort
when regrets triumph
over achievements
when despair
is a persistent nudge
and loneliness
is all consuming
Light whispers:
Love lasts forever
In the darkness
when confidence wanes
and hope takes flight
and faith is questioned
when nothing seems to relieve
the sustained onslaught
of grim news
and thwarted plans
Light whispers:
Love lasts forever
May the light of love
carry us through
the longest night
sustaining our spirits
until we glimpse
a brave new dawn
