Let there be light

And God said
“Let there be light...”
upon the dungeons of the soul
where buried dreams lay
feeding off of the hope you had for dreams that aren’t yours.

Let there be light
upon all your fears posing as excuses,
may you see them for what they really are: non-existent.

Let there be light
upon wounds that never healed
and have stemmed weeds that grow in the garden of you.

Let there be light
upon the darkness that caused you to keep living your life with your eyes fixed to the rear view.
Let parts of you remember the warmth of the sun, the radiance of hope.

Lesedi ha le be teng
kgohlong ya moriti wa lefu moo Ramasedi a kekeng ao lahla teng.
