Changes
Life sometimes
rolls on
for
years
leaving us
in a state of limbo
perhaps if you let the dark
alone
light will renew itself
at least that is what earnest thinkers
seem to say
but at other times
it seems that
despite our
best efforts
we are trapped
by shadows
Darkness - a living thing
it haunts our days
If you can enjoy
yourself
even for a little while
take heart
the time will
come
when you step past the known
taste the wine
of a new reality
feel the pulse
of the world's heart
which beats on and on
Shadows nonwithstanding
