As I lay lost in <br />the darkness of my <br />illness, <br /> <br />My body weary and tired <br />the journey long and <br />fought, <br /> <br />I am not afraid to die <br />this night, <br /> <br />Lost in the darkness <br />I see beauty before me, <br /> <br />The wind gently blowing <br />through my open window, <br /> <br />I know that I am not alone! <br /> <br />For what I can not see <br />I can feel, <br /> <br />I have never walked alone <br />when I was weary you were <br />there, <br /> <br />When I cried you wiped away <br />my tears, <br /> <br />When I had no strength to <br />walk, <br /> <br />You held me up, <br /> <br />When my wings were broken <br />you shared your Golden ones, <br /> <br />As this night draws to a close <br />and I am closer to death, <br /> <br />Peace and tranquility <br />washes over me, <br /> <br />For I will not journey alone, <br /> <br />Though you had passed before <br />me, <br /> <br />You have come to take me to <br />a higher place, <br /> <br />My Angel, My Friend.<br /><br />Ruth warren<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/in-darkness-you-came/
