When faith fails,
it falls to earth,
a stone-cold thing
of hidden worth;
entrenched in snow,
it slowly dies,
a frozen gem
in lowly guise.

Dungeon living breeds dungeon minds,
Dungeon eyes with dungeon blinds;
Dark is the tunnel where hopelessness winds,
Swallowing Light on its way.
Lift up your eyes, O dungeon mate,
Do not accept your dungeon fate;
A dungeon well-lit’s but a doorway-in-wait,
Leading you back to the Day.

Even the dark places can lead us in their dark meanderings to where the Light resides…
