Electrical Storm

When your eyes are tired

the world is tired also.

When your vision has gone

no part of the world can find you.

Time to go into the dark

where the night has eyes

to recognize its own.

There you can be sure, 

you are not beyond love. 

The dark will be your friend tonight. 

The night will give you a horizon 

further than you can see. 

You must learn one thing:

the world was made to be free in. 

Give up all other worlds 

except the one which truly loves you. 

Sometimes it takes darkness and the 

confinement of your own aloneness 

to learn

anything or anyone

that does not bring you alive

is too small for you.
