do not lose your light
even when the dawn forgets to come. a poem.
Do not lose your light.
Even when things feel uncertain
and the dawn forgets to come
do not lose your fire
hold close your inner sun.
Do not lose your fire,
and do not lose your light
for it's in the inner tending
the eternal soul burns bright.
Do not lose your light. (Nor hand
its sacred tending,
to the changing figures
of the night.)
Do not lose your light.
And, as things grow darker
(or longer, or the days colder)
know it's in the sharing
that more brilliant lamps,
ignite.
Do not lose your light.
For e'en in great storm or drought
or darkness,
the lamp of soul is bright.
Hold close to your light.
For no outer force can steal it,
the light of soul, it always embers
through the Darkest of all Nights.
Do not lose the light.
(You cannot lose the Light.)
