I Against: an Affirmation

[adalger]

I against the darkness, a candle at a time,
Throw my soul into the sky to find the sinking sun.
Soaring spirit brightens, hopes forever climb
As long as I continue with the light that I've begun.

I against the silence, word by clever word,
Cast my mind into the void to seek the cosmic din.
Thoughts and dreams and visions ever will be heard
As long as I continue with the song I now begin.

I against the stillness, by step and leap and bound,
Throw myself into the sport of life, and dance and run.
Peace and strength to fill me everywhere are found
As long as I continue with the life that I've begun.
