Lighthouse of the World

How could I ever be misguided
When you lighten me so fully
Through the night, throughout the gully,
When I suffer, but I hide it?

Lift my spirit, give me hope,
When there’s no one there to love me,
When there’s only death around me,
And I slide, fall down the slope.

Lighthouse, dreams have come upon me,
Dreams of happiness and wonder.
You have touched me, placed me under
Your enormous light – you blind me.

For your truth is so delightful,
Yet I feel I knew it all –
In an ancient time, my soul
Was so lightened, so insightful!

Now I read the signs you taught me,
And remember love to give,
And to smile, to thank, to live,
As your light lives deep inside me.

I've always had a thing for Lighthouses, and your beautiful photograph along with it's amazing poem reminded me why I loved them so much. Incredibly lovely work
