The ValleyWhen the valley of your heart is muddied and swamped-
And all color absorbed, turning light into black.
Allow your self to sink in, to admit to the pain,
Just know that the light will return to that plain.
Find your way back to all beauty left in this world,
For I promise it’s there, though at times, unrefined.
Fear not the routine, though you’re held in it’s grasp
You can break off it's claws, to cut loose from the clasp.
The valley is vastly unending it seems,
But with deep breath and open eyes you push through,
You always do.
And beyond your valley is another, and another
Day to be taken and cherished, and held
For what it is, and the potential for what it could be
If you let it….just be.
