Light

Some people come into your life disguised as a light when they are only there to rob you of yours. And back to the nature you go in search of yourself.

Rivers they don't just flow
they glow
As if lightning is woven through every drop

Trees, they sway
they sing
Like every breath is a note

Dew drops, they shine
like diamonds
Like they have a light of their own

Flowers they glow
Like the sun
Like nothing can ever dim their brilliance

I followed
mistaking a moth to a firefly
Got robbed of all my light
Yet again
So here I am
Gathering light
So that I can glow
So that I can shine...
