Awakening

A Bright Light

By Alexei FinchPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

In the darkness of future past,

Far ahead as long ago;

Before pale light was cast,

Brilliant blaze was culled by snow,

And silent curtain drew closed.

In this timeless place unheeded,

By man or beast or spirit;

Dawn itself was lit,

By spark, errant and true,

Bringing all we needed.

As light blinds nubile eyes,

A die cast in appeasement;

Corruption from the seed of lies,

Soon replaced by clarity’s denouement,

And sight in all directions.

Traveler, hear it now,

Across subliminal ocean;

Our endless, sacred vow,

Of protection and devotion;

Guiding toward what must be.

In time the luminous truth,

Long hidden deep inside,

No longer to denied,

Will radiate across the spectrum,

Of all that ever was.

A cycle broken,

By truth spoken,

To starving minds.
