The light

I lived in the dark before her

The cover of the dark hid my insecurities

I could see nothing, so I missed nothing

The cold of the dark numbed my senses and slowed my heart

I felt nothing

I became one with the dark, cold and empty

Safe within my dark place

But with her it all changed

Like the blind with regained sight, I see all things as never before

Her presence speeds my pulse and brings sweat to my brow

The sensation of her touch sets my soul on fire

There are no insecurities at her side, I am invincible for her

She is unrivaled magnificence

I will see the dark no more

She is the light
