Slivers of light
Rare, they flicker in and out
Piercing the night,
Shocking sweet consciousness.
A love that could be
A light that could be me.

Curtains of darkness abound,
And swallow each sliver
Nearly as soon as it's born.
Reach out but it's gone
Oh to grasp tight one chard
And ride it on to clarity.
