Snow

Darkness crashes
Into white
Casting shadows
Into the night
Illuminating beauty
Radiating light.
I stand in awe
Taking it all in
Letting the purity
Wash away what’s within
Knowing the hope
That let’s me begin
Again
And again.
No longer bound
I am set free
To believe in love
Because of the victory.
Twinkling lights
Amidst the black
Tiny rays poking through
Giving strength where I lack.
The light is a veil
In the vastness of the sky
Providing a well
Where my soul runs dry.
My lungs breathe in
The crisp night air
Cleansing and waiting
Knowing what’s there
Beyond the veil
The victory’s won
I know tomorrow brings
The rising of the sun.

Light.

Letting go
Is like coming home
To an unfamiliar place
Where I feel unwelcome
And the dust doesn’t settle
The clanging outside
Is deafening inside
Amplifying the noise
Muffling the truth
It just keeps getting louder
It’s so loud I can’t stand it
Yet I turn up the volume
And I can’t stop listening
Because the silence is
Even louder
It exposes the fears
The words I carry
The loneliness I hide
The deep wounds inside
Needing validation
Illumination
Consecration
Less condemnation
Freedom from guilt
Reparation
Because all that keeps me
From giving into the
Darkness
Is believing in
And walking into
The light.
