You are the light in my darkness,
that ever guiding candle flame that
dances in shadow and casts a glow
for me to see in warmth.

Into the abyss I had fallen and there
you were yet hesitantly you flickered
there in the darkness of this arroyo.

Found you then lost you now found
that burning flame once more I have
and that glow casts that warmth about
this darkened cave once more so
that I might not stumble and fall again.

For you are my light here in the dark
and I am your shadows that blanket
the night when the Moon shines down.
