Universal Light

i am neither the creator or the destroyer. i am you , i am the light, what does it matter, if you mock me or ridicule me, for i always have and will always be. i promise nothing, no bloody holy land, or murderous calliphate, and now we weep for man and his frailities, the sirens scream, but they do not kill for me. my only purpose is to exist. i am your lover’s grasp, and the smile in a new mother’s eyes. the pleasure in laughter and the tears upon a gravestone. i am your empathy, i am your kindness. i am the dollar you give to a stranger. i am the light. i am you
