One of my new goals for this blog is to feature other poets I know, some famous and some that are just friends writing. One I came across that I really enjoyed was my friend, Steven Mertz's poem, a light in this dark world.
In this hopeless world,
our only salvation
is to find a meaning,
a meaning to live,
a reason to love.
For love is the key
to the gate of happiness.
I once had that key,
it seemed a perfect fit,
but alas it wasn't so.
Then a light appeared,
it bid me follow,
so follow I did,
for many weeks and many months,
this light led me on.
Whence it finally stopped,
there you were, right in front of me.
The light went through you,
seemed to surround you,
and that's when I knew
the key was you.
I can see that light in your eyes,
I know we can keep the flame alive.
For we can burn forever
in each other's arms.
