Your Light (6/5/2007)

I hold your light in my hand
It fills me with warmth
It embraces me
And ever since I held it
I have been happy

But what is that?
On the horizon
I cannot see
Your light is too bright

How should I discover it?
I need to cover your light
Only for a moment
I will return to it

I see the new light
It is different
I try, but I cannot hold it
It does not embrace me

I return to your light
At least I hope it is still there

I open my hand
The light pours through my fingers
And I am refilled with the embrace
The happiness

But just as soon as the feelings return
They encounter something within me
And they begin to fade

Soon my hand no longer contains any light
Only a memory

I am still surrounded by light
Thousands of tiny lights
But they are all
Different
