A GLIMMER IN THE DARKNESS
Now the shattered visions
And all my broken dreams
And all the tears of bitterness
Overwhelm me like a flood,
Or so it seems.
And yet,
Deep within my tortured soul
Some tiny, obstinate spark of hope
Holds off the darkness
From engulfing me.
Undaunted, unyielding
Against the irresistable onrush of night
That tiny spark remains.
A fragile bastion
Of unconquerable power
Pitted against the merciless
Onslaught of terror and doubt,
That vainly seeks to put out
The hidden promise
Of the coming dawn.
