Pure Light, Pure Love

My desire to be part of this world
And also to be separate are at odds
While the quiet thunder that sounds inside
Draws me out into a world that needs my light
And yet shuns the darkness
That it secretly embraces

The light an assault
On skin too raw to accept,
Painful from the lack of exposure
Yet desperately longing for more

Longing for openness
Never before experienced
But known by the soul
The acceptance of life in its purest form
Pure light, pure love
