Dark Place, Dark Light

That dark place
Within your head
The one you hide from
And thought was dead

It reaches out
With fingers in black
To make you feel
That aching lack

Blood is to pain
What light is to sun
And when brought together
We'd do well to run

But the storm does pass
As we hide our faces
And we can measure our journey
In our stumbling paces

Look back to
Those blood red hills
See how far
You've walked from you ills

Take a deep breath
And stumble on
Because no-one knows
How dark that light shone
