Shadow

Light

By Thomas DurbinPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read

How do I not walk in your shadow?

Whether in the depth of the night

Or in the clearest part of day,

An everlasting beacon of light,

Beaming forth doth show the way.

How do I not walk in your shadow?

There can be no shadow, for you are the light.
