In this darkness
I wonder loss
Pretty things gone
Living in Hell
But still living
Not condemned or
Damned in silence
Ahead I spy
A new world
Filled with joy
Wonderments and miracles
Laughter and kisses
The sweet kisses
Of new-found love
To explore map
Typography of ribs
And hollowed cheeks
To peer into
The deep pools
Of someone’s eyes
And knowing certainly
I’m at home
Again once again
