In sorrow’s depths…

In sorrow’s depths hides a spark of Light,

Seemingly untouchable, unattainable.

Tears blind your eyes to it,

Pain blinds your heart,

Memory enshrouds you,

Pulling you down

Into the abyss.

Hold out your hand,

The light will not burn you,

Nor flee if you seize it.

It only grows in brightness

As you move towards it,

Warming your heart

With the hearth-fire glow,

Blending the shadows

On night’s canvas

Till the stars appear.

    Excellent! There are times when that spark of light seems so far out of reach.

    May that sorrow be quickly replaced by lavender hills, grass greener than emeralds and a bright sunshiny spring day. 😉
