Darkness

In the darkness is where I find thee.
In the worst moment, the hardest day,
There you are in the midst, hidden
From my own blind wandering, you
Are there to encourage me, to see me
Through the wildest of storms, and
All I need to do is quiet the storm
Breaking within me, not listen to its
Howling winds, or to its crashing sea,
But listen instead to the onside place
Silently calling within, the calm inner
Eye which says "I am with you, you're
Not alone in this, take rest, shelter, safe
Haven", before you dash your boat upon
The rocks of anger, disappointment, hurt,
Aloneness. Quiet, quietly it comes on the
Horizon, the breaking light of peace.
