The Dark Won’t Hold

Poetry 1 Minute

  
  All these words have already been used –

I can only hope not used up

Looking back on all this time 

And all these mine-times

Is like looking painfully and unaware 

At someone else’s life

That’s not so bad, I guess;

A long aching road’s

Being replaced by snatches of sunlight

That stretch and change

And quietly brighten all these inner rooms

Simple unexpected joys burn away 

(What I thought were) too many shadows

The light dances

In all these unexpected ways

(But always yearned after)

And the dark can’t hold

Praise His Name

The dark won’t hold

Hmmm... I have no idea what to say. Bit of a loaded topic, this one. (At least from where I'm standing.) If you'd like to learn more, maybe read on in the "About" section?

    1. What a lovely and gracious comment! God indeed transcends all our tiny musings, doesn’t He? Oh, how I love Him for His love extended: that it’s bigger and wider and greater than all else.
