Beyond Shadows

Confined within broken memories Lost somewhere in the moments of fantasies With loss of air in this confinement Choking on words of hatred With the world celebrating, start of a new day Bright sunshine and fresh fragrance of content I, under the shadows of dark cloud and thunder Abandoned somewhere in space, arriving nowhere Mind pestering the trail of yellow rays Wanting to fast forward, beyond shadows When those chilling memories cease to exist Under the rays of a morning sun Impatiently awaited this day When rays of light broke through the storms Eyes of miraculous hope Smile of a warm welcome Frozen people, frozen world Frozen time, with you across the room And no one else No one else here but you Leaving footsteps to follow Every lingering memory left behind Wounds starting to heal And finally resting under the rays of comfort
