“A SINGLE LIT MATCH”

Uncategorized 1 Minute


When chaos reigns in our hearts, It dulls even the sharpest of minds,
shredding our confidence apart, like great levees eroded over time.
Failure feels predictable and certain
Catastrophic collapse is on its way
Swearing this your final curtain
And you have reached the end of your days.
Yet outcomes are never preordained,
Something can always change the tide,
Living hearts are never completely drained
So don’t pack it in before the end of your ride.
It takes the faith of just one single thought
And the effort of just one single scratch,
Because even the deepest and darkest of caves are brightened by a single lit match.

I still love doing the things in my life that bring me joy. Like being a father, a friend, creating new music, or a new poem. Creating a good meal to share with family and friends. These are just a few of the passions that bring joy to my life. That joy is what keeps me loving the life I have been blessed with.
