The Longest, Brightest Night

And in a night in which
big waves of panic hit the shore
and make me gasp for breath
As I looked for you in my dreams
but could only find chasing thoughts
and empty nightmares
It is the moon that shines
full and round

And after the shortest, darkest day
She makes of the longest night
the brightest
As if she’d like to say:
‘My dear, please do not fear
Even if the night seems long and endless
I still reflect the light of my sun
And although you cannot see him
your beloved is with you
in the light within’
