In the Dark, Your Light (New Poem)

In the Dark, Your Light

by Tim Kavi

sometimes

I might find you

looking back at me

when I think you did not see

me smiling

at the goddess inside you

projecting outward

as the light of the world

for She is just the woman

inside of you

smiling

caring for babies

healing the sick

caring for everyone 

every day

lost in the world

there is the darkening

of your image

the vastness of despair

but your light

pierces it in the still 

of the world's midnight.
