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.
