The Blinding Absence of Light

The Transformative Way

 In the absence of light

       of what use is a book?

       in a light that blinds

       of what use is the eye?

        in the vortex of suffering

        of what use is despair?

        in the word unsaid

        of what use is forgiveness?

        in the absence of faith

        of what use is hope? 

        …only Love remains.
