the light goes out so quickly,
you are stunned by the suddeness of it,
and a paralized for the instant,
in which time stands still.
you blink and the light is gone.
resting in the netherworlds,
of which mortals beleive in.
and you cry out for the light,
wanting it to return,
for the silence of the dark frightens you.
and you wish for the warmth to find you,
because the absence of light weakens you,
and you shiver in helplessness,cold and alone.
but then from the emptiness, a new light shines.
filling you with the ecstacy of life.
and even as the light breaths it's breath into you,
soothing your wounds and empty pains,
a shadow lingers still, but not of the darkness,
It is a hint of rememberance of the light,
the one that was the first to hold you,
guide you and warm you,
with offers of friendship and love,
built on the foundations of trust.
And even though that light has ceased to exist,
it does in your heart,
and all those who remember that light.
Cling onto it dearly, you will never forget.
and as long as you remember- the light will Never die.
for it is still alive...within yourself.
and there- it will Never fade.
