Gasping for light

Sitting here musing
Waiting for a sign
Waiting for a message
Out of the blue
She speaks
This unknown person
I’m drawn to talking
Drawn into opening my heart
Hoping there is understanding
Laying it on the line
So lost
So confused
Like some boy in mind
Not sure of where to turn
Or which door to open
I’d lost my muse
Lost my direction
Lost my guide
Lost my life
Lost my light
But in this darkness
This unknown begins to shine
And the unknown becomes known
The hidden becomes seen
And the secrets become shared
This light gets stronger
The conversations longer
And more I am drawn to this light
The distance is far
But I welcome the travel
For as always
A tune will be my guide
Moving on
Getting on
Help me
For I cannot do this alone
This past that haunts my waking day
And memories that invaded my sleep
Break these chains
Unlock these vaults
Free me
And let me breathe
Because I cannot gasp forever
