Move Bright

the dark ones
claw at your light
not to hold it tight
but to tear it down
to tread you into earth
till you are empty
like them
 
run
run
run
 
their love is death
their kiss a stealing
            of life’s breath
an embrace to die for
ice to the inner core
the pain you feel
their unholy meal
 
move bright
               move bright
 
dance away from night
and walk a crystal shore
Holy timeless delight
 

Cheer a Day Brightly

Cheer a day brightly
the song’s begun again
and there’s hope sneaking
along through the windows
 
into our lives
this persistent mist of sun
fails to leave –
no darkness for us
 
though sometimes
the needle scratches
and the sound seems old
it is never so black
that the day fades away
 
never so alone
that the hands aren’t there
awaiting the call –
 
swing me out of blindness
and sing me into the song
cheer a day brightly
there’s hope on the rise
