Poem
When A Briefest Moment Of Light Chases Darkness Away When deep lonely becomes your faithful companion Dark fills your broken heart's empty canyons Grief invades and your happiness washes away Dawn weeps so very deeply- all life seems all gray Your tears splash upon the most dreaded, sorrowful ground And night arrives to your fortress skillfully pound This world every hour seems a century long You can only cry hearing her favorite song. O' god, will this massive pain ever fly away? O' god, shall this soul ever see a happy day? As I live in this dark abyss, where fear reigns And heart and soul swim oceans of grievous pains Will I, this mountain of heartbreaking gloom defeat As this black-world sends each morn's darkness to greet I as a poet know, God's light can gift relief In a blink, break chains, restoring faithful belief What can a heart do, when weeping sorrows invade sleep One finds their fervent wish is her to hold and keep? O' god, will this massive pain ever fly away? O' god, shall this soul ever see a happy day? Robert J. Lindley, 3-07- 2022 First Note- deleted…. Second note-- I pray such heartache and sorrow never ever touches you my friends. For this is no greater, darker and more painful experience than this… This has totally demolished my thought to be fortress, Shown it to be but a vain and mortal folly. No human alive can face this darkness, this epic, avalanche of heart destroying pain and not weep.. I cry and yet wonder, shall I survive this??? RJL *********************** When Death Has Stolen Both Life And Love Dawn, I beg you- Light return Do so to soul gift relief Now pain, all life's true joy burns And Dark casts its epic stabs of grief. Robert J. Lindley, 3-07- 2022 Lind30SR
