In hours of complete darkness, alas!
the brightest stars blind tired eyes,
their glow a torture for those intrigued
with the transcendental in disguise,
whispering softly, „I am here with you“.
Yet so far away, it holds – invisible –
a light of hope up in the sky,
though darkness it will take to see
how beautiful the blackest black can be
when there is someone far from here
who knows you and will soon appear
to remind you of your worth – and why
you feel at home only at night.
