Ultimately
This will be
A slice - a sliver
Of my life
A story of color
Friendship
The Guiding Light
Across the darkened way
That led me
Throughout my life
Even to this very day
And that light
Emanating
From the darkest places
Anyone could ever imagine
But...
This is also the story..
... Of color
Of different values
Different effects
The path I've traveled
That fate directs
So then... to realize
No map exists
To lead me on
Or back down
The trail that twists
No need to seek
A detour once missed
Forward bound
Trusting the light
That led me here
Footprints left behind me
As i watch.....they disappear
While I move. on ...toward the light
...through darkness. that ...
I no longer have need to fear.
