Night Light
Night Light
Enfold me in your tender loving embrace
that reaches out from the past with
long arms to keep me near you.
Visceral pain combines with physical
in a continuous loop of uncertainty.
I feel as though I am drowning in
reflective deep waters, opaque with
darkness that lingers indefinitely.
Maybe it is the fullness of Luna
controlling my thoughts that spiral
to the depths of this darkness.
As this long night gives way to dawn
and another day begins, I pray that light
will enter to vanquish the darkness
within, while shadows of remembrance
peak and I step into sunray’s warmth.
