Enlightenment.

I once was lost
Stumbling along
and falling, weary,
I could not find my way.
Like a single star
in a black sky,
you shined your light
on me from a place
beyond the endless dark.
You reached out to me
from heaven
and I took your hand.
I was weak
and broken
but you gathered me up
and held me,
whispering softly in my ear,
soothing my aching heart,
healing my wounds.
My wings were broken,
so you gave me
one of your own
and taught me to fly
by holding me.
Now I can't get enough
of heaven.
We walk together
in the sunlight
and hold each other
in the night.
When you reach out to me
from the dark now,
it is only between dreams.
Our eyes say,
"You are forever safe here."
Our love says,
"I will fly with you always."
