Shay


Like a morning that dispels darkness,

From scared hearts,

A fragment of light that opens the door,

Of a dark tunnel,

Like an afternoon that spreads a yellow blanket,

To keep her children warm on a winter day,

Your smile seeps into my consciousness,

Scaring away the monsters, of uncertainty and doubt,

When I can go no more, I tell myself you are there,

Fighting your battles,

Facing your nemesis,

Yet spreading warmth and support,

Sending gifts of confidence and joy,

Be there like the North Star,

To guide us lost travelers,

Like you always do.
