Cloudy skies turn blue

With the sunshine of His love

And bathes us in light

The sky tells its story

It speaks of light in the dark

Though storm clouds chase the day away

The heavens leave their mark

Reminding me, this too, shall pass

The light will return again

This is the hope I cling to

While I listen to the rain

Lines across his face foretell, forgotten times, he knew so well

Shadowed visions haunt his skin, faded, buried deep within

A darkened mind, lost in space, the shredded features of his face

Flashing by like meteors, reaching down into his core

Celestial ebony, blackness of night, knowing he’d never again see the light

Shining, in an unforeseen glow, sightless, he fights, as the memories flow

Waiting for Shadows

Whimsical shadows that play in the light

Taunting and teasing you every night

Hiding in corners, they fill you with dread

You’re starting to wonder, is this in your head?

Or are they just playing, these spirits so dark?

Choosing to haunt, on a whim, on a lark

Then disappearing from view, once again

Wondering if they’ll return and when

Lying awake, with the night, you’re attune

Waiting, for shadows, in the light of the moon

Hollow Darkness

IMG_1369
It’s hollow in the darkness
Where thoughts and fears collide
The rapid beating of my heart
That tears me up inside

Can you hear my silent cries?
Soft whispers in the night
Do you hear me calling you?
When things don’t go just right

Don’t leave me here, alone,
Again, I cannot face the day
These battles, much too hard to win
My body, worn and frayed

Answers to my questions
Left lingering in air
I’m asking for your comfort, please!
Just let me know you’re there

A sign to reassure me
Everything will be alright
It’s hollow in this darkness
I need to see your light
