No More Than Lost

When it’s stormy inside,
And hopeless to wake.
When the demons prowl
And muddy clear water

Messages to keep simple,
Hold tight, don’t get lost
To walk or swim
Only now can choose

Without choice or words
Only reading the heart
Flames that flicker out
Leave embers aglow
Like stars in the eye
Awaiting each fresh blink

Recall feelings experienced
A new hand to hold tight
A new path to walk on
That tears have washed clear

For demons do sleep
And water does clear
Storms ease to calm
And embers be flame again
