The Light that Shines through the Darkness

I walk in a peaceful darkness

I can't see, yet I'm not afraid

I move forward, knowing it will be ok

In the distance, I see a flicker of light

I walk towards it as it calls my name

Each step brings me closer

The darkness giving way to the light

Suddenly, it's not so dark anymore

I see the trees and the grass

I see the path ahead

This lantern of hope, shining through the unknown

This beautiful light that guides me on

Ever so quiet, yet strong and bright

I follow the lantern through my journey

That carries me through each day

Knowing that with that light with me

I will never be lost
