Step by step

he continued into the darkness.

unable to see ahead,

all he can do Is keep moving forward.

trying to listen for help

but his mind is full of doubt.

worried he’ll be stuck forever

wandering alone in the dark.

close to giving up

he starts to stumble and fall

When someone reaches to take his hand.

the world is lifted off his shoulders

and his mind is at ease.

guiding him towards the light

he finally begins to see

the image of the person helping him.

as he finally escapes the dark

he sees all he’ll ever need in life.

his true love.
