Embraced By Loneliness

He was embraced by depressing loneliness 

While dancing with the shadows of despair

But hoping was he, her smile to shine again
  
For the path to happiness, him to prepare!

I dedicate this poem to my friend, Tommy Boy, who reminded me
"there remains hope - John 5:28,29. always hope!" 
I, from my part, reminded him of Pandora's box and the story
told by Hesiod the 7th century BC. where hope is our only friend!
