The Cathedral

Twilight in the cathedral,  
Silence fills its auditorium.  
I linger in this atmosphere,  
Seeking answers to my many questions.  

Twilight in the cathedral,  
A moment for reflection,  
Discovering a path through the night,  
Understanding the one who dwells within.  

Silence in its auditorium,  
Those seeking solitude gather in the cathedral,  
Responding to the depths of existence,  
Exploring the mysteries that shape the daylight.  

I sit in reverential silence,  
I bow my head,  
Troubled and burdened,  
I unwind.  
I emerge from my darkness,  
Journeying into perpetual light.
