lost in the backwoods with no sign of light.
even shadows left me.
i look for shelter.
everything is quite unseen.
i, too, am concealed.
i lost the spark
along the travel.
someone took it away
away from me.
away from my soul.
nothing left.
i saw a shooting star from above
with burning light and a graceful glide
coming down
like it is saving someone.
it landed beside.
at last, i see the light.
we become friends.
never away, never far.
the light she gives
is all it takes.
i am saved by the bringer of light.
