With your borrowed torch,
Will you shine for me later?
I'll be awaiting here.

It need not be yours,
as long as you shine it bright
I will enjoy it.

Be Encouraged
There are a lot of giants just waiting to challenge us. They know their power is small compared to God's, so they rely on our own low self- worth that they have created in us. They plant in our mind that we "can't, won't, shouldn't or wouldn't" so that we don't pursue those hopes or dreams that we have.

Ahh, there’s something so relatable in that “It need not be yours” line as if saying, I don’t need perfection, just presence. Beautifully vulnerable.💖
Oooo, the concept of borrowed torch to represent the moon being visible during daytime is brilliant! Loved your poem
