Darkness sits
At the bottom of my soul
Heavy
It flows up and around
Blanketing all
That is me
The heavy voice of despair
Reminds me
No hope here
No place of escape
No safe place
Energy and light
Are dreams remembered
But . . .
I do remember
I remember hope
I remember light
This too shall pass
Don’t quit before the miracle happens
I don’t know what’s around the bend
Others have been here
And walked on
Walked through
I am being refined
I am losing what I don’t need
I am learning what I do need
Let go
Be
If it feels like I'm in darkness
Be in darkness
But, know it is an illusion
Remember the light
The light is there,
Whether it’s seen or not
The light is always there
The memory of sunlight
Warmth on my skin
Causes the darkness to lessen
The light is always there
Though I lament all that is
And all that is not
The light is always there
In my weakness and frustration
In my anger and my sadness
The light is always there
