The light will never
find you
if something within
grips onto
the very thing
that keeps you
bound in darkness
healing – connecting – empowering – thriving
The light will never
find you
if something within
grips onto
the very thing
that keeps you
bound in darkness
Your inviting light draws me in
My companion in the stormy darkness
You offer a passage to dull the ache
That simmers deep inside
I enter your embrace
Dismissive of its cost
Longing for sweet relief
A retreat within
To a place with no name
Draping me in your warm
Cloak of familiarity
Here the noise quiets
If only for a moment
Allowing breath to return
Foolishly refreshed
And unknowingly branded
This place feels like home
A home I must run from
