Walking In The Dark

Darkness is all around,
  brightness near but still no sound.

Seeing nothing, hearing nothing,
  but knowing something is around.

Images become so clear,
  but still only quietly near.

Darkness has no fear,
  as what is there is so clear.

Silent it may seem,
  but listen carefully and hear its meaning.

Whats to fear,
  when darkness is near?

It envelopes you with a comforting surround,
  it makes you feel safe and sound.

Step by step we move on,
  as darkness always tags along.

In life we deal with all experiences,
  in times of light and times of darkness.

Walk through the troubled times,
  and darkness can never be unkind.
