The darkest night

In darkest night
when nothing can be seen
as black in black the future lies
and even the strongest path
is hidden from sight
I have seen a shimmer
a light the guides me
through the longest hour
away from here
to where I belong

Creeping on my knees
with every step towards
I feel the tightening clamp easing
that held my breath
sweet air fills my lungs
with scents of hope and peace
and a cooling breeze
caresses my heart

Lost in the woods
of thought and sorrow
following the sound of laughter
heavenly voices
memories of things to be
luring me to a place where I can be
and I can stay
and I can breath
and I can live
