I was lost in the darkness. Dead silence. Not even the moon shown on me that night. Not a creature made a sound. The stars had retreated into the galaxy as if they never existed. In a distance I started to hear a faint whisper. A magnetic pull was reeling me in, deeper into the woods in search of something that could save me or literally rip me to shreds. Fears aside, there was something so comforting in the whisper I heard beyond the darkness. They grew louder and more frequent now changing into different frequencies. You're strong, you've got this, you are loved, you are safe. Surrounded in these whispers, a shooting star crossed the sky almost as if it was purposely put there to show me the way. I follow. I make it to the edge of the woods, and it is but a blinding white light with a euphoric energy radiating off of it. Again I put my fears aside and I followed. Do you know what I found on the other side? I found love, wholeness, peace, happiness, tranquility, warmth. I found you. See my whole life I have been walking blindly through the world just following whispers in all different directions unsure of which way to go and never feeling whole while trying not to trip over the depths of the darkness and roots on the forest floor. Then the shooting star which is you showed me the way and led me into the most beautiful, loving light and showed me a world I could once only have dreamt of.

- Comment from author about the poem: This poem is inspired by my amazing fiance Rocky Dior. Without him I honestly do not know where I would be. He has brought me back to life and made me into a better mom and significant other. Just an all around better person. Love transcends beyond all possibilities.

Another poet on here ? I think o have read his poems
I like your words .. good poem .. strange isn’t it how we can walk through so much darkness only to then meet a light to make our lives so much better . We all need those stars
What do you mean another poet on here?
And yes it is absolutely amazing. Those stars are most definitely needed and valued more than they'll ever know. When they shine we all shine from within.
