Breakthrough

Silent darkness

it's everywhere I go
there’s no escape
it’s always looming

waiting to prey on me

a hand slips into mine
shapes begin to form in one hand
while strange things are pressed into the other

I feel the water run

cold and wet
and I realize
the flowing water
and the shapes in the darkness
are one

I feel Your hand slip into mine
the life-giving flow runs deeper

than the streams in my hand

I feel You breaking through
this deafblind world
