~love's Light~ Poem by Sinnaminsun Sinnaminsun

Love's light splinters deep
spearing pain upon this day,
Riding loss on wind's reprieve
now blowing you away.

Cut all ties that bind the heart
and break at times of need,
Love and hate becoming one
fueling the pain you bleed.

Burning stars light heaven-high
light shines in many ways,
Yet loss of hope still shrouds within
and out as darkness plays.

Falling stars now stall above
awaits a wish tonight,
Will you spread your wings or pale
under their burning light?

Fading out the night withdraws
into a quiet hush,
As the pain with sunlight grows
and fills you with its rush.

Ride this river flowing darkness
spilling into day,
Rushing waters rolling onward
drown within their sway.

Love's light never really dims
but you won't ever see,
Blind from knowing dark from light
You're lost eternally.
