    Everlasting Beacon
    AS YOU STRUGGLE WITH THE DARKNESS OF PAIN,
    AND YOUR SUFFERING SEEMS SO IMMENSE,
    AND YOU FEEL THE WALLS ARE CAVING IN
    AND YOUR TEETERING ON THE FENCE--
    WHEN YOU THINK THAT NOTHING MATTERS,
    LIFE’S NOT WORTH LIVING ANYMORE,
    AND IT’S TIME TO CLOSE YOUR EYES AND SLEEP,
    BUT--THERE’S A KNOCKING AT THE DOOR.
    YOU HESITATE TO ANSWER IT
    FOR FEAR IT BRINGS MORE PAIN.
    BUT SOMETHING DEEP INSIDE YOUR HEART
    SENSES SOMETHING YOU CAN GAIN.
    AND SUDDENLY A GLEAM OF LIGHT
    FILTERS THROUGH THE DOOR.
    YOU OPEN IT AND THEN YOU FIND
    THE JOYS THAT LIE IN STORE.
    THE STRUGGLES YOU HAVE HARBORED
    SEEM EASIER TO BEAR,
    BECAUSE YOU OPENED UP YOUR HEART
    AND FOUND JESUS STANDING THERE.
    YOU LET HIM IN, AND WHAT A JOY.....
    HE TOOK AWAY YOUR STRIFE,
    AND GAVE YOU PEACE AND LOVE AND FAITH
    WHEN YOU LET HIM IN YOUR LIFE.
    HE’S ALWAYS THERE JUST WAITING
    FOR YOU TO OPEN THE DOOR.
    HE WILL COME IN TO LIGHTEN YOUR HEART
    AND STAY FOREVER MORE.
    WHEN YOUR HEART IS COLD AND BURDENED
    AND YOU’RE LONGING TO BE WARM,
    KEEP HIS LIGHT ALWAYS SHINING
    AS A BEACON IN THE STORM.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.
