Night Of Everywhere

I seem to be stark light of loneliness
when I walk with you on the signless road
to protect you from sorrows of the world
and give you fruit I steal from Tree of Life,
companions in the night of everywhere
glowing bright with love as long as we dare.

My heart will always glow with happiness
as I move through life with calm fortitude,
though anger of hope flares when careless acts
disturb my steady path of carefulness,
progressing in the night of everywhere
so reward for hard work is always fair.

Enclosed in stoic solitude of strength
to preserve safe haven of paradise
as garden surrounded by sturdy walls,
I hide from hungry horror of the world,
humming psalms in the night of everywhere
to praise the mindless sun with hopeful flare.

Guarding my family with observant faith,
who dwell in confines of our precious home,
I maintain vigilant focus through love
to secure fragile dreams their hearts design,
attentive in the night of everywhere
to breathe divine spirit from frigid air.

To fortify our garden home from harm,
secure against hostile forces of change,
I shield the frightened hearts of eager hope
which animate the people I love most,
souls enshrined in the night of everywhere
safe within dream walls of our family lair.

Though winds of civil war corrupt the land
with fetid greed of oligarchic thieves
who threaten to disrupt our quaint routines,
we struggle against despair to unite
our mission in the night of everywhere
to help each other survive with mute care.

When traitors to everything we believe
seize control over assets of our state
to enrich themselves from wealth of our work,
we assert principles of honest faith
to stay bright in the night of everywhere
because we survive when we make and share.

I try to be clear light of happiness,
but fear of sudden destructive attack
from thieves who strike when we are vulnerable
sparks protective rage to glow in my heart
so I shine in the night of everywhere
as mortal who hopes to answer each prayer.
