Light
A glimmer of maybe.
A gleam of relief.
A flicker of possible.
A ray of belief.
A shimmer of certainty.
A flash and a spark
of bright shining positives
to dazzle the dark.
A gleam of relief.
A flicker of possible.
A ray of belief.
A shimmer of certainty.
A flash and a spark
of bright shining positives
to dazzle the dark.
