The Returning

__________________


I spoke too soon.


Tonight,

The sunken moon

Kissed me

With starlight

Before I could

Cry into the

Lonely

Pillow.


Tonight,

Darkness knows

Bounds,

Like the ocean’s

Mighty waves.


“Come no further!”


Crashing into the

Light

In my brother’s

Heavy eyes,

It broke its

Bloody knuckles

On tomorrow’s

Steadfast gaze.


“I would have

Despaired

Unless

I had believed

I would see

The goodness of the LORD

In the land of the

Living.”


Take heart;

I am

Returning.

Breathtakingly beautiful. It's harmony. :-) I am so proud of you! "The way of the righteous is like the dawn. Shining ever brighter until the full light of day." - Prov. 4:18
