When the lights go out (II) - An Original Poem

When the lights go out
And the world falls dark
We are left to face
The fears that lurk in our hearts.

In the silence and the shadows
We find ourselves alone
Struggling to find meaning
In the chaos that has grown.

But even in the darkest hours
There is hope to be found
For when the lights go out
We can still see the light in the ground.

It shines from within us
A guiding star in the night
A beacon of resilience
A beacon of might.

So when the lights go out
And the world falls apart
We must hold onto that light
And let it fill our hearts.
