the light is our landmark
in the death of darkness
we followed the rhythmic
swell of a tempestuous sea
hungry for wood and flesh
to take to the bottom
the light is our sign
that we are close to home
and the warmth of safety
that we have a chance
of surviving this night
that we live to love
our families once again
the light gives us
hope and courage
to continue on
without the light
we would be
swimming with the devil

I am a 52 year old male with a late diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome. I enjoy writing in all forms about people and life. I enjoy running over the moors where my mind can be free from the stresses of everyday life. I am currently studying for a PhD in autism and aging. I hope you enjoy my writing and please feel free to leave a comment. Thank you for taking the time to visit my site.
