A Lighthouse

[Mickey Mouse]

(*by me*)

A lighthouse
To a ship lost at sea

Shelter from a storm

The terrifying and wondrous realization that
We are not alone in the universe.

It happens in the blink of an eye.
First sight, one moment
You see a glimpse of it and it hides
Until you’re ready
Ready
“Ready”

It is fluid, it is whole
A smile in the morning
A touch
Of the hand
Terrifying and wonderful
All at once

You accept it, in time
It becomes a part of you
You cannot help but find it
Because it finds you

A lighthouse
To a ship lost at sea

A beacon of hope
Hope
“Hope”

A lighthouse
To a ship found at sea
