Fear and Love

Swept along the
Current of darkness
 
Blindly grasping
At illusory forms 
 
The distant laughter
Ensures one of light
 
Light yet to be seen
In this tunnel of fear.
 
That loving grace
Felt deeply within,
 
Is working without
In equal part
 
Where desire hasn't place
One silently retreats.
 
In quiet surrender
Arms fitfully flail
 
The laughter louder,
It's an inner sound.
 
The inaudible light
A dawning without start
 
Forgotten smiles pulled wide
With atrophied freshness
 
Gasping for air
Now pure and clear
 
Eyes open, heart too,
The rising sun does emerge
 
Changing threatening rivers
Into nurturing lakes
 
Replacing fear with love
And death with life.
