When I first met you I was blind, but you I could see. You were my light in the dark. When I was with you everything was clear and when you were gone, well it was pitch black.
You didn’t know you were my light, I never told you so. Who was I to burden you with my disability?
So my moments of clarity were few and far between but none the less profound and extremely gratifying. After awhile I found that I much preferred the light to the dark. But still I could not tell you so. My moments of light would come and go as the years passed. Until one day I realized I could not live in the dark alone anymore, I needed you, my light. I needed you since the first day I met you. It had to be meant to be because you were the only one I could see in my pitch black dark, the only light in my world. Now all I have to do is tell you…..

oooh, that’s a heavy challenge for the light
And now I have to go off and write something because your words blazed through me, igniting thought in their path.
… “unknowingly catch a glimpse of a reflection from behind a shadow-throwing blockade, and think it is the source”
This makes me sooo happy! :) Thank you and I hope you share when you are finished!
