Lost in shadows, disappeared in night,

A speck of hope, a distant light.

At times it gleams a little near,

Blinking softly, crystal clear,

Before the darkness slowly grows,

Swallowing the light it owes.

Is it natural then to stray

Into a maze that hides the way?

Hiding in a corner small,

A shelter built behind a wall.

The heaviness begins to fall,

Breathless days that swallow all.

As if inside a room shut tight,

Yet something stirs the will to fight.

A shadow hovers, cold and grey,

Like stormy clouds that block the day.

A thousand paws that reach and creep,

But skies like these don't always weep.

The clouds must part, the light break through 

That clearing sky is coming too.

A long road stretches, winding still,

But hope anticipates with will.

The darkness fades, the shadows thin 

The light ahead will surely win.
