Inspired by One More Light
Merit Badge in Honoring Chester B [Click For More Info] If they say who cares if one more light goes out in the sky of a million stars? It flickers, flickers. Who cares when someone's time runs out if a moment is all we are? We're quicker, quicker. Who cares if one more light goes out? Well, I do. ~One More Light, Linkin Park~ For paying a tribute to Chester Bennington, July 2018. *^*Star*^* ~Minja

Darkness increases,
with each light that goes out,
with each soul that passes
into the silence
of the grave.

Intone prayers for the departed,
to assist the severed soul
in its movement
through the passage
that lies between
the material and spiritual worlds.

Let your supplications be lights
that decrease the darkness,
illuminate the soul
that has passed,
and shatters the silence
left
by the light
that has gone out.
