Light And Love
Lighthouse. Not your typical light house.
A house with lights. Not electricity or bulbs.
The people- bright and happy. Love personified.
And like a lighthouse they guide
They illuminate, they lead
Bringing to light what you need
But like lights they burn out
Batteries need replacing, recharging, relighting
Re-loving, reliving, relearning
Restarting.
Turn the page. Turn off the switch.
A light can only burn bright for so long.
It all goes dark in the end
A candle burning out
A phone dying
A blackout
A flash of lightning
A black hole
The sun swallowing itself
As it was always meant to
There isn't much we can do to stop the cosmos colliding
But enjoy the transient beams of colour and light
That guide us
Like that of a lighthouse
Like those people
Like love
