Go on ahead dear friend.
Go to where the world awaits you.
Go away to a place of welcome.
The lamp endures along your outward path
As the night allows you its unique glow.
The love of times passed still lasts.
In the dawn of change a place awaits you.
In the hours of pain you have undone fate.
In the times of fear you have been made bold.
Passed the reach of oppression you have dared.
Passed the long lines of the bewildered you have continued.
Passed the clocks on the walls you have many times.
On your way to better days you may pause.
On the threshold of peace there is no hurry of thought.
On your arrival, those without will embrace you.
In my memory I will hold you with the common might of necessity.
Into the dark you are a light of essential intensity.
Into our condition you will come and go alike the sun’s authority.
It is you who extends a moment of joy to the point of thankfulness.
It is you who carries in one hand the mercy of our spirit.
It is you who walks among us in humble repose from the rain of wisdom.
If I awake to find that you were only imagined, then I will build you in myself.
If only in fantasy can you exist, then I will bend reality.
If I can only know you in my mind, then I will share you in my words.
