It hits me hard As I plow along Like a robot Feels like I go it alone The days and nights Blend into one another A faint glimpse of joy Eludes like wind blows a feather Thanks for sharing the journey The young and the old Find refuge and safety Confidences safe that are told There is strength in numbers A trust and a bond A safe place People with whom I feel one I spot the rainbow Small steps I make With those at my side The light glows Capturing the light …Impenetrable Carrying the torch I now remember Starting as a mere glimpse A promise unfolding Now the flame is within me Beauty to share radiantly shines …The spirit of humankind
