There seemed to be a dark stormy night
when the fish of the sea were hiding
for my line was restricted by the roaring waves.
Yes! These waves were violent for some time,
it seemed like forever.
Until one day the sun shined through,
I met up with a great fisherman.
Yes! He was the one; he even knew how
to fish in the dark and stormy nights.
Like a miracle, this fisherman was able
to take me through waves much larger than me.
Fishin' in the dark was not my best avenue,
for it was difficult to catch anything during a storm.
See, I knew there was all kinds of fish in the sea,
but that's not the point here.
We are talking about catchin' anything but roaring
waves of difficulty and discomfort; I did not understand
how to accept what was given to me until now.
I feared that more I pushed the line; I would scare the fish away.
I rejected the most beautiful fins of the sea,
because I was still in the stormy roars of past waves
hunting my line whilst thinking that nothing would happen
whilst something did happen; I have almost left the fish go-
Yes! Until the fisherman came to me...she could explain
what I was doing with my resisting line.
What an awful battle I had to win!
Fishin' in the dark was no fun!
Roaring waves tearing at my boat;
what was I to expect? I could not expect much of anything
to happen whilst still trying to fill my net.
Then I realized this storm that I was in;
created by me, caused all the fish to leave my net.
I was going in circles; arguing with everything-
resisting the line, not actually pulling the line in;
almost causing the fish to escape.
Then I felt a tug-a-war on the line; it was so strong, even my
Heart was racing. Yes! I knew this was the one!
Fishin' in the dark gave me some hope-
I was able to find peace, but what I once feared
came to light; and the Love in my Heart was so strong;
I could not let this fish go. No! I was so confused as to how
I caught something this beautiful in the middle of
My stormy moment. It was the end of a seven-year heartache
that almost broke me; when I was forced to let go of my
infatuated beauty of fish I had in the past, because
they were not exactly as tasty, beautiful, or lovable as
they put themselves to be.
No! Fishing in the dark was a challenge, but now I can
help others with this problem, because I been there.
I will never forget my experience with
Fishin' in the Dark, but I will forgive the experiences.
Those fish did one thing that needed to happen;
I set them free! Only one knew that I was worth his time.
What was once fishin' in the dark is now sunshine presence of joy,
given me pleasure to leave the dark side go.
I could never leave him go, because that means going back
to the place I was, which is not an option for either of us.
If I let go of light, I would be letting go of the beautiful creation of-
love, joy, happiness, transparency, and respect of what light
has to offer in my life.
Sometimes we have to know what fish has to be tossed back-
out to sea to allow a new life to restart in our freshness.
Yes! I owe it to myself that I will no longer fish in the dark.
Sometimes it is others' love, joy, and happiness that helps us out of darkness. You do not know how much influence you have until the perfect fit is transparent. Let that love be forever within you. You will also know your true soulmate by denouncing darkness, and being transparent to a heart out of darkness and into light. God bless with love!
