Cracked

The light creeps in
Through the crack in her soul
Reaching, pulling her out
Of the darkness that swallows her whole.
When your eyes are closed,
Its easier to see
Anger that mulls and mortars your feet.
Until the light comes
And takes it away
You are able to distinguish
The night and the day.
See through the crack
Grasp hold of the light
Toss and turn fighting
The darkness of night
Comfort is there
There is peace for a bit
And love fills the walls
In the void of the pit.
