Poem: Into the Light

I walked where shadows kissed the ground,
Where silence wore a heavy sound.
The path was long, the night was deep,
My heart a storm I could not sleep.

But far beyond the veil of gray,
There flickered light that led the way.
A trembling spark, a whispered flame,
It called me gently, spoke my name.

Each step I took, the darkness thinned,
Like breath released, like mercy pinned
Upon the dawn’s forgiving face—
A hush of hope, a touch of grace.

The weight I bore began to fall,
No longer lost, no longer small.
I faced the sky, my soul set right,
And moved at last into the light.

Thank-you for reading.

Remember there are many paths back to God.

Follow your own path,
