it takes a long time
Tag dark night of the soul
it takes a long time
stars resisting night
it’s easy to forget the shadows
dark night of holy truth
what grows in the dark?
for all that we hold
the slightest opening
the spectrum of light
the uglies that define us
the pull of gravity
eager for insight
the shadows lurking
within essence
come to the altar of peace
knowing through the dark night
