Dark clouds loom
In the distance
Sunlight splinters its beauty
Illuminating the darkness
Destroying its embrace
Even in the simplicity
Of the light
Darkness
Can’t hide, can’t run
The light calls
To Courage
To Truth
To Love
To Forgiveness
To Freedom
Even in the darkness
Resides beauty
Waiting
Darkness cannot
Nor will not
Hold captive the beauty
Of the light that is coming
Simply believe
Have hope
A little faith
And wait for it
The light
Illuminating everything
