A Light That Shines Through

As the rough waters settle and once again become calm and tranquil and the heavy winds 
begin to lighten to a soft flowing gentle breeze, and the stormy grey clouds begin to part to 
reveal a glistening blue sky with bright rays of light, everything comes into focus again.
You are again able to see where water runs into land and where the sky separates from the 
ocean.
Everything becomes clear and familiar again with a hint of beauty from some mysterious 
face present that is not alarming but refreshing and a moment of clarity places itself within 
you. It falls into your grasp and sight gracefully as it awakens your ability to conceive the 
realization that you've survived the storm. That everything is going to be alight, and an 
overwhelming sense of relief and peacefulness is aroused in your heart.
And just like a ray of light that shines through, that is the feeling I got the moment I met you.
