Lights and Blinds






    Soft, feathery lights draw me near
    My eyes closer
    To the blinds,
    I find
 
    Solace in the warmth
    Of their little arms
    dwindling slowly,
    silently,

    From a silhouette
    Of head and body
    till there's no trace
    Of their endearing embrace.

    I understand the sun
    Is about to retire
    After a long day, I can
    Ignite the fire

    Of tears and loneliness,
    Listen to my fears and sadness
    Yet faith gives me wings
    To fly, my soul sings.
