A Light in the Darkest of Nights.
By: Keila Levis
I see love at first sight.
I see wonders in the sky.
Like an owl, I see the darkest of nights.
I see loneliness, as I spy.
I see a world held by fright.
Stalled by many who chose not to rise.
A heart held by truth.
Like the break of dawn; strong and bold.
Seeking a change in today’s youth.
But not to tell or scold;
Or prolong uncouth.
I naturally will stir the waters.
I will change poverty.
The fury of dark.
I will change brutality.
Shadowed by terror.
I will change the cry of the yearning.
To embellish, and give new sight.
Why make this Change?
To slow down the chaos and the pain
Or to set a difference or to be strange?
Many things are in vain.
To generate transformation.
A young child’s wants always persist.
Like the sun, shining through in the darkest of day.
I will ablaze a light to all who moan.
Keep this fire in me I pray.
Change is now; change is today.
Again, what is placed in me is stronger.
Mightier, than any power in this world.
Many see the light that shines bright.
Giving new path to all.
