darkness
the sun remarked, the other day,
‘really, I am just a shadow.
yes, really. I wish I could show you
the infinite incandescence
that made me.’
when you are in the dark,
the lonely, doubtful darkness,
I wish I could show you
the amazing light
of yourself.
Hafiz
One thought on “darkness”
The image suits very well for the tone of the poem.
“the amazing light of yourself” sounds very refreshing. 🙂
