If I hold this light

If I hold this light

Please realise that rests within my capacity

To bear the darkest of night

And the deepest of sorrow

Knowing that no matter how harsh the storm

After it is done 

New light will dawn tomorrow

Upon a landscape washed clean

For regeneration is the light of life

Borne witness through enduring cycles of decay

And so if I carry this light

It is only natural that some will fear me

When I try to come near

For they do not want

To enter and transform their darkness

Or wake from their fear
