On the edge of freedom

Occasionally
That fire insides dies down.
You've been sharing your light to help others find their path for to long.
It hurts because they never stayed long enough or came back like they promised.
More often than not, when you're in this momentary darkness, they will not light your path because they cannot see you.
They're light now shines so brightly that it distracts them from your subtle glow.
Do not blame them. Let it go.
Rest your heart and repair your soul.
Soon your color will return,  your path will appear, and you will begin again. Though you may be alone, you will be your own light.
