That Place of Light


"That Place of Light" 

empty halls 
long with tall stories 
missing spines 
lead you onwards
towards the inner sanctum 
where the heart on fire 
for something much more 
burns a warming lux chord 
for you to hold onto 

heaven comes in many forms
in the great halls of archives
there you’ll find me waiting 
for you, your pages turning
front and centre inner sanctum
back-of-house light forms
studying your every move
there is no dark judgement here
yet you are reviewed

your story 
of light and dark 
both necessary shadows
irrespective of what is 
good and bad 
never ends, 
your journey
not null and void
through your own choice 

in one form 
or 
another
 
continues
