Light up

You’ve wandered into
This realm – unable to leave,
Fettered by darkness.

The light that you seek
Exists – but the space you seek
To light up, is huge.

Look around you, to
Find things to burn – destruction
Can brighten this realm.

Paradoxical –
And yet, it’s only fire that
Can douse this darkness.

Pick up the old yarns
And cast them into the fire –
Watch the realm light up.
