"THE CLOAK"

It’s almost just a whisper
You can barely hear it there
Like tiny strands of stardust
That are floating on the air
Like a ghost before your eyes
Sheer and so transparent
It will likely pass you by
Reach out with your fingers
And you’ll hardly feel a thing
As if you’re trying to touch the clouds
And gather them all in
But listen and reach out again,
Take time to look around
And you will see and feel it
And you’ll hear the way it sounds
It echoes in the footsteps
That continue pushing on
It lingers with your words of faith
Long after they are gone
It’s felt in all the strength you have
That helps you hold on tight
To all those threads of courage
That you cling to every night
It’s seen in every rainbow
And in how the day appears
To throw a spear of sunlight
Through your deepest, darkest fears
It’s hiding in plain sight
Though you don’t recognise its face
But you can feel its presence
As it offers you embrace
So let it wrap around you
Like an almost weightless cloak
And you’ll feel a little lighter
Now you’ve dressed yourself in hope
