Your love guides me well
Through torment and calm alike.
Focus in the night.
Clearing out the waves of life
With your smile for a lighthouse.

Nicely done, Nathalie. The lighthouse as a source of calm and stability. I like this very, very much.

It is amazing, those things that can be the lighthouse (or beacon) in our life. Depending on the circumstance, it can be many things that we focus on as our anchor. Well done.
