One lantern with its faintest flutter
veils darkness with its shimmer.
Your worries form a quiet mutter,
fearing it's turning dimmer.

It's not an easy path you've chosen,
learning to trust the quiet pledge.
Through valleys unknown dark and frozen,
yearning to see the river's edge.

It is still darkness you keep sensing,
but beyond it reaches your longing.
Not knowing when it's all commencing,
you thirst to find yourself belonging.

Move through a wilderness so stark
with thorns and thistles skirting path.
Ship's crosstree invites to embark,
to sail outside this place of wrath.

Very thoughtful and artistic!

The poems i write usually are expressing my relationship to Him, direct love for Him, or feelings of Him loving me so much!

Your feelings are implied but for sure there.
