NIGHTLIGHT

 

After 4 weeks of treatment

I am now fully radiated

as a result

I am taking on a new status

I am now a night light

I glow in the dark

I light the way for others

I illuminate the room

I shine my spotlight on laughter

my high beam turned on poetry

people follow my path in the halls

of their darkness

my red glow like a beacon

I am the light in

the automatic door opener

the light in the refrigerator

I am the light

at the end of the tunnel.
