Lack of words its torment
the silence screams
luminosity's lacking.

Though this world's dark circumstances
report it to have dimmed-
the darkness has not taken the light.

So lest you would believe otherwise-
I am here to attest,
it shines.

The hearts that hold to faith
keep it bright.

Three cheers for you, Luminosity, for staying in the light. The dark is there, but I have learn to avoid it mostly, so it seems, have you.

There's certainly plenty reporting of dark circumstances in this world. But true faith, should you be fortunate enough to be blessed with is power source, would certainly lighten that darkness. Though that light can only ever be of a personal nature.
Succinctly, but perfectly expressed.
