Hark To Light
Within my heart burns desire
always being doused by longing
waiting for sweet passions fire
alone i search for my belonging
falling down a spiral staircase; dark
to the straight narrow arrow of light I hark
Ascend from current state of dark
Change, react I see the light
oh, to me my answered plight
now I see that all is white
Dark is day and day is night
I feel no reason
for the season-ing
of my believing
and my need is leaving
as I stop believing
but the crushing wont stop being
and all that I am seeing
isn't worth believing
waiting being light and feeling
also I am dark
and no answer in the dark
can I find
but the light of my own hark
