Yesterday, the sun shone black upon my soul

Depth's depth deep beneath my heart.

Lumined ne'er by hope

Thoughts sank weighted low

 

Today, dawn'd, in heaven's mantle rais'd,

Glims golden future in my mind.

Light lightened all by future faith

Heart, mind and soul exalting up

 

Her voice love levered up, returned it from the depths

Dark voids where happiness was stranger.

Sweet syntax, sound, scintilla of a hope

Revives joy 'gainst something sometime void

 

Let not my soul's heart drear decline again

Voice defeats pen, vision understanding

I heard and saw perception peak

Tomorrow's future lends little light today
