Radiant
See the dark world and all the dark places,
it’s casting its lonesome shadow on me;
And all the places where people could be
are instead filled with dark, hollow faces
that fear the light and shining, bright spaces.
Look into the world, and surely you’ll see:
Earth is akin to a lock with no key,
and its vibrancy gone with no traces.
But alas, what is this force in my heart?
It is bright, it is soft, it is glowing,
burning even through life’s dangerous shoal;
Now it ignites, filling every last part
of me, once lost but now it is showing:
Now that Radiance brightens my soul.
