This is the one good thing
The one positive
My one talent
The upside of it all
Lit torch in the poor darkness
But how can something so small
light up a whole soul
Keep the workings from failing
find each corner with a leak
or a scar and make it fade
The patchwork may crumble in the darkness
and nothing will see it drop to the floor
But it will be found one day
whether it will be repaired is not the narrator’s choice
The reader must be the one to lift it high again
