Light the Love Light

Now that the sun is set The sky is cold and gray, Should I for a bit rest? I have come a long way! The night is grim and still, The bare trees stand at bay, And there sits a dark hill – We wait the break of day. Oh, I am lost and worn Yet I must not here stay, Lug my load and move on If love just light my way. The burden of my woe, Along the thorn-strewn road, Help me find, where I go, Kindred souls to unload! ~"Pierced" contest by rob carmack
