Just when I doubted

Just when I doubted myself,
Just when I bout gave up
A light shone thru.

Scathes my lack of intention
Attacks my dullard fears
Presses me on
And pulls the reigns of attention
Back from unconscious years.

Un-zips my eyes
Sore from looking the other way
Unfurls my feelings
And they sing out a chorus of
Doris day.
Ohhh I don’t like to sing quite like that!
I say…
I want some blues
I want some tears,
But this force of light before me
Will have none of my deep-seated fears.

Its pinnacle of truth goes straight to
My utter zone
My heart is beating loud
My lips produce a smile
That’s been lonely
A laugh that got lost in the crowd.

From Dark to Light
I am back again,
No world of inequality,
I know that my worth is
One breath One thought away
One Word One Peace One Me.
