the near north
{There is a darkness that consumes positive energies, while delivering nothing good. In order to get beyond the pain and suffering and years of yesterday’s fears…and all the tears the darkness will cause you to shed, you must embrace the light}

In the midst of
The swirling mist
That is…DARKNESS
Shone a single point of light

A ray of hope
For the oppressed
…the directionless

A beacon
For lost souls
Who can’t find their way
…who refuse to say
HELP ME.

{or, so I’m told}

There is a bright light
Surrounded by darkness
…a happiness
Embraced by all

What is this?
The light might ask
But the darkness stands
Still…still…still
Lurking in the self-defeating twilight
That is us

Yet, in the midst of such darkness

There is a joy
No one may conquer
…a smile
That brightens each day

There is a laughter
That sings a melody
…a twinkling eye
That touches deep within

There is a bright light
Surrounded by darkness
…a happiness
Embraced by all

There is a smile
Surrounded by sadness
And fears
And pain
Released in the form of
SO MANY tears
And, yet
The smile remains

There is a bright light
…surrounded by darkness

Everyone embraced it

The light.

There was a brightness
Surrounded by darkness

Yes.

There is a happiness
Embracing us ALL.
