A Poem For a Weary Soul

Entering a realm where time seems still
Cherishing past memories and moments 
She treasures so dearly
The road ahead is rough
No matter how far or long she may go
The journey’s end seems so far
Days continue to pass by
But reason and purpose 
Has almost faded
Visits from friends, 
Letters from home, 
Gifts from loved ones
All ease the heart
Of the pain and agony 
From which she endures daily
And as the journey towards freedom draws nearer
The road ahead seems more strenuous
She sometimes wonders if it will ever end
Soon…
Soon will this age of timeless days end
And a new age of joy and happiness
Will free her weary soul
