In Darkness
dog park delights
Recommended musical accompaniment: “Roman Candles” by Eric Owyoung, Future of Forestry
It Is in Darkness
That silence grows
in the hidden corners of the soul.
Drawn forth
by tilling the soil
of stories left untold.
Uprooting unearned shame,
conjuring salted tears,
and minerals of pain—
nourishing the ground
where a new and holy name is sown.
A gardener of truth,
of joy,
of hope not yet seen.
It is in darkness
that something grows:
a soul being set free.
