Invited Light

Invited light
Invited light I bequeath you
To light our darkened paths today
Lightly traces of moving hands entranced
Within its loving stands

Impelling grasps its whispers sound
Struggles free its bounded chains
To live the life that’s needed
Fleeting hints that pass us by
Hesitation within its makings
Awake to face the day

Expressions masked behind its fate
Courage found for what’s ahead 
Within its joys recited 
For those that want to hear

Stamped its true impressions free
To leave its seed when leaving
Within these days of youth and age
Passed our baring torches  
Ignited by our struggles shed
Embraces all within it all
To that which can be said
