The Beacon
Today I am struggling
But this too shall pass
Today I am low
Ill tempered, alas
Today I have sunk
And reached a plateau
But the only way is up
No further down shall I go
Yet today I connected
With a familiar voice
Put a face to the kind words
That had given me solace
And this lifted me
Out of myself
It gave me hope
Like casting a spell
A beacon in the darkness
Thus everything seems less bleak
A source of strength
When I was feeling weak
