A Shaft of Light
There, within the sinister forest of despair he stood
Numb, lost as to what next to do
Before him lay a pathway to where…so unclear
As an empty feeling grasped his psyche, instead
Being a man, in subtle silence he bled
And in solitude made plans his heart held
Many boulders, stones lined the way
Soon became craggy mountains meant to stay
With blind faith, his gradual steps moved him to find
A future yet unseen, yet vivid in his mind
Soon, his eyes widen as he watched the fading night
As slicing through dense thicket arose a shaft of light
