Spinning on the Axis

What lies behind all the apparent darkness?
What stirs within us to make us dare...
Dare to straddle any hurdle of fear
With trepidation yet powered by deep courage
How fast the human heart beats
thump-thump
thump-thump
What rare feat is it that pushes us to manage
that imagined darkness and any inkling of  despair
with urgent longing for light and patience...
we see the blue sky once again,
appear.
