The Darkling Path

I walk through a darkling path

In search of obscure light

The path is caved, and the way is blind

With none in my sight.

I tread with caution and in lone

Deliberately missing thorn and stone

For help, in the ethers I gaze

At Orion and Virgo with mystic daze.

The stars chart something I cannot hear

But it helps, for my mind is clear.

With insight I flirt with cherubim above

Who with nimbal aura show all bright.

A moment I lose my grounded gaze

I stumble to Earth from my daze

It is dark again and my legs bleed

As hope is lost in the hour of need.

I remember her face, it moves me

I stand and tread again to see,

For I’m a moth, one in many

Seeking warmth from the light of Love.
