“Slivers of Light”
cji
8/21/12
Off in the distance
seen
only a glance or
chance
appearing and
reappearing
thus closer came the
I
the sliver of light
smaller
needing to get closer
quick
grasping for air so
short
as if in a dream
watching
the sliver now yet
smaller
running, crashing,
faster
almost no sliver to
see
unwilling to give up
now
stretching forth my
hand
into the shrinking
gap
only the tip of the
finger
making the crack of
light
then falling into
darkness
as deep sleep
overcame
yet slowly to awaken
the light soft all
about
having found to
endure
never quitting or
stopping
the sliver of light
to find
finding me as I then
it
slivers of light
eternal
as life to who
endure!
