"Lighthouse"
There in the darkness
among an endless hazy fog
shines a source of guidance
from far off in the distant dark.
Even as the sky
is shrouded from view
with all its stars
hidden
behind a thick murk
a lighthouse stands
parting with its light
the heavy mist
of fear and hinderance.
An infinite sense of resignation
seems to blanket
every breath we take
as the sways of the water
pushes and pulls
us
away
from our beacon
of light
as forward
becomes lost
among the endless
misty black
of fog.
But there
in the darkness
the resilient beam of light
we have followed
shows us the way forward
before again
the sways of doubt
tips and leans
us
more toward
the haze
above these murky waters
that extend forever
in every direction.
And yet
there,
standing tall still
is our tower of light
shining
our source of guidance,
reminding us
which way is forward,
which way is right.
Which way for us to go.
