From darkness to light

Tricked by ego, troubled by desires, heart sank,
grieving, searching like a ghost, lost in darkness,
turning inwards, to softly slow such thought forms …
   taming the tempest.

Doing nothing, poised in the void, we beseeched
powers that be, to hasten to our rescue,
that we may be bestowed with spherical sight …
   before our exit.

Setting up thus childlike intent, soul softened,
gazing at the radiance surging outward
from our very core, a bliss mist enchanting …
   exhuming all fears.

Hello Unseeking Seeker, Yes the darkness does bring fears, sadness, anger. When we find the light we feel peaceful. Blessing my friend. /Darlene/
