Eclipse of the Heart

After seeing the picture my wife took of me casting off a blinding glare while watching the eclipse in my bathing suit, an insight passed through me regarding an eclipse of another nature. Over several days and many hours of mind numbing editing, it finally manifest in these four simple lines:


Ablaze with Darkness

Here stands a lost samurai, adrift in My presence;

Oft blocking My love and living in darkness.

Not realizing this shadow is also My essence;

Afraid to surrender and experience My vastness.
