Dark tunnel fills with light,
you are taken hostage by fire flies
Too gentle to be a threat,
and you forget yourself
Too small for you to think
they can take you over,
and even as the end comes closer,
you try to dive back into the dark
Because that’s where illumination comes
.
To guide you, push you forward
Then, to test your knowing
Do you know where you’re going?
How you got lost, where did you start?
.
Illumination drives away the dark,
but your roots
should stay put
