All was lost

in the dark of the night.

I could not see

I lost my sight.The eyes that see

are connected to the heart.

I felt the measure

and full weight of the dark.

Courage fled,

despair did appear

sharing its companions

anxiety and fear.

When I gave in

with hope nearly gone

what broke through

but sun and a new dawn!

Night you can keep

your dark and gloomy lie.

Hope is again shining

in the big blue sky.
