come into my shelter
the blackish form invited
all your foolish fears
suddenly be righted
slip into the shadow
slide into the dark
every brave step forward
will ignite a spark
imagine you see the light
it’s right on this other side
you will be rewarded
as others came and tried
move across the grayish stones
it will only take a moment
to enter all the sunshine
now brighter than you’ve known it.
