Candle of the Night

In the depths of my solitude, I see only two companions: Loneliness and melancholy- Following Leading my life. On the tightrope of my cloistered existence, I felt about four pangs of grief: Emotional, Spiritual, Physical and Psychological- Troubling Disturbing my peace. On the apex of my bruised feelings, Am faced with triple agents of man-hatred: Envy, Jealousy and Ignorance- Insisting Tearing me apart. On the peak of my sorrows, I experienced two pangs of hurt: Memories of disappointments and reminiscence of grief- hurting bruising my soul. Ever since you came into my life, I started feeling two unexplained warmth: Compassion and caring disposition- Embracing soothing my nerves. Now that I've found a companion, Am yet faced with two obstacles: Memories of my past and thoughts of my future- Threatening My new found peace. But since I've found solace in the bosom of God, I saw my most hated and dreaded enemies: My past mistakes and sins I've committed- Fleeing And leaving my life.
