There's A Light

There’s a light
Somewhere inside
But I don’t know how to find it

They say that light
Is burning bright
Am I too blind to see?

The fire burns and swells
I feel it getting hotter
Embers spark against my ribs
That light’s getting stronger

There’s a light
I feel it fighting
Never will it rest

I've looked through a few of your pieces now and I've gotta say, you are a wonderful poet. Everything works so well together and it's a great pleasure to read. I like this one the most so far, can't really explain why. Just connects to me. Keep up the great work.

Such a depth in this write, very nicely done!

And the thing is do you want it to come out? I think we should shine like a light sometimes and be proud of it.
Very good poem.
