In darkest night, the soul is alone. <br /> <br />The soul is alone and the world silent; <br />In deepest pain, silence like a knife <br />Can leave jagged wounds <br />A soft human voice can comfort and heal <br />A soft human hand can touch <br />And that is never too much. <br /> <br />In darkest night, the soul searches. <br /> <br />A ray of light, a hope, some solace; <br />Words of wisdom from a wise human being <br />Knowing the far path from which you've come. <br />Sometimes tired of just being. <br /> <br />Now dawn pales the sky. <br /> <br />There is the night and then the day <br />A giver and taker, taking all away <br />There is sorrow but tomorrow <br />Even after the darkest night <br />The soul will find the light.<br /><br />Rani Turton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/in-darkest-night/
