Darkness
covers
hovers overhead
night deepens
darkens
wrapping us in sleep
and then slowly
the cracks of light
shine through
waking
us from dreams
lights filtering
into being
the cracks
of life
formed
from pain
loss
worry
leaving heart
with fissures
spaces
of the earth
opened by cataclysms
movement
cracks
emerge
suddenly in a single jolt
or slowly
over time
wearing down by pain
the tears
fall forming cracks
from rivulets
to torrential
streams
sadness
has its own cracks
inside
broken
shattered
but these spaces
they let
the light enter
again
the rays
shine
penetrate
heavy eyelids
called from slumber
open in cracks
the curtain
moves revealing
light
coming in cracks
of our room
to bring the day
to remind us
of the beating sun
the hope
the next
moment
in this journey
of life
where no one
can get away
without cracks
and if we all
look and see
there is the
light
filtering
moving
piercing
through the cracks
lighting
illuminating
a ray of hope
a marvel
of miracles
that the sun rises
again
and shines
through our cracks
our fissures
our sadness
bringing
drops of joy
visions of
sun
coming through
riding
in
cracking open
into light.
