in the dark
i see the light.
you.
you’re the light.
you’re my flashlight
in the constant power outage of life.
sometimes the light you shine is white and bright, and
almost appears to
restore the power.
other times it’s just a glimmer of light,
no larger than a rosebud,
a soft petal of light
with a narrow focus, and not much flood.
that’s okay.
i don’t trip and fall in the dark, and i know that’s
got something to do with you.

A beautiful, touching, profound piece.

“I don’t trip and fall in the dark and i know that’s
got something to do with you”….
a poignantly simple expression of Great Love

I gotta say, this is pretty good, i guess I think the poem’s flashLIT.
