If this street was dark
With no light with me
I will close my eyes
And your face is what I’ll see
And I will get through
Thinking of you
You’re all the light I’ll ever need
And you’ll make me smile
If for a while
You are all that I will ever need
…
I look up and I see
Stars lighting up the sky
Moon hiding behind the clouds
And I don’t know why
I feel you are near
With me here
Your voice ringing in my ear
And I will get through
Thinking of you
And bring down a star or two
For you’re all the light I’ll ever need
And you are all that I will ever need
All that I will ever need
Nice work Frank

I love it. At the beginning I thought it’ll just be another cliché about someone being another’s “light”. But I realise you don’t overdo it. Its beauty is in its simplicity. 👍

Did you lose a love recently? Most the poems I looked at in the last while speak of longing for a lost love. Just wondering.
The poetry resonates with me….

I was thinking about this post and my own post on God being everything I will ever need. I’ve gone through various losses and in the end, God is the one who is always there for me. For that reason, I can see this poem as being written about God as well as about a lost loved one.

Being someone’s light is an awesome feeling. It is also pretty dreadful – what if my own light turns off…

Yes. It is an awesome feeling but there is nothing to be fearful of. The light inside never dies

We all are both. No one is beyond fault and sin. That said, your heart is truly not the run of the mill. Most do not see the world through the eyes of love. It’s just the sad state of affairs today. For that reason alone you are a treasure. And everyone who reads your words knows it. I know it.
