Light Me Up

Aradhna Malhotra posted under PenMuse-24 Poetry on 2020-11-20



Frozen numb, my hard soul, Stood aloof, a flawed whole, Passer's by, glanced no sight, I offered none, warmth or light. Ignorance froze, solid white, Knowledge none, sans light I waited in dark, unlit, Damp and cold, my spirit. Then you came, lit my way, Kindled, stole darkness away, My soul, glowed, alight, Lovers seeking through the night. Lit, long I burnt away, Brightened paths, never sway, Soon I lost, my hard shell, My scent lingers, in hearts dwell.
