The Light Within The Shadow

The beam behind me begins to fade out, The path ahead is uncertain and cold. I cast my glance with a shadow of doubt, To hear a truth that has never been told. I watched the light cast a shadow in front, It showed a step or two out from the dark. It showed a step or two out from the dark. I walked ahead in a desperate hunt, To find a sign or a lingering mark. The beam turned dim as I moved further out, And left me stranded in darkness and doubt. I stared at beacons beyond the sky line, I stared at beacons beyond the sky line, Blind to the treacherous steps at my feet. I sought a promise I thought was divine, While watching moments of clarity flee. The distant light only covered the horizon, While right in front was a dark unexpected. I sought a light without a shade, And lost the substance of my form. A hollow ghost that fear had made, Drifting inside a silent storm. Light without hope is a cold and endless dark night! The stone only reflected what burned in my soul! I was the flame that could give me ultimate sight! Ignite the center to finally take control! I leaned on the stone, To show me the way. My blindness was shown, In every display. The source was in me, To set myself free. ⁠ To cast no shadow is having no weight, A man of air with no substance to hold. I stop my run from the dark and my fate, To warm a heart that was hollow and cold. I look ahead at the step in the dark, With open eyes and a grounded intent. My own inner spirit becomes the true spark, To reclaim every year that I spent. I sought a light without a shade, And lost the substance of my form. A hollow ghost that fear had made, Drifting inside a silent storm. Light without hope is a cold and endless dark night! The stone only reflected what burned in my soul! I was the flame that could give me ultimate sight! I was the flame that could give me ultimate sight! Ignite the center to finally take control! I look ahead at the road, With eyes that are clean and clear. I drop the ultimate load, And conquer the root of fear. Is this where I need to go? The honest truth starts to show. I take the step into the pitch dark, With steady feet and an inner glow. My spirit burns as the only spark, With true vision to guide where I go... The path is mine! This path is mine to behold…
