We never ask for the darkness
We never could
It is too much.
But because You love us
You plunge us into blackness.
We cannot see this at first
Sometimes we cry
Sometimes we curse
We stumble with our hands outstretched
trying to find the way
until we realize
that You never left us.
Our eyes adjust
We recognize the treasures
diamonds that You could only form
during the night.
Grace
