David William Breidenthal Poet Free verse

Enchantment

Gloomy evening will fade 
The moon will shimmer like the sun
Endless night will vanish
There will be peace…

Enchantment enlivens
In my jubilant heart
I see
An island of abstract beauty 
I witness the light at the
End of the tunnel 
We keep stubblin’
…(Ooh! Ooh!)…
I feel like I’ve lost grip
Enchanted by your…effulgence 

Triumphant morning’s born
The sun will never leave today
Depart, grief-stricken clouds
There will be joy…

Enchantment enlivens
In my jubilant heart
I see
An island of abstract beauty 
I witness the light at the
End of the tunnel 
We keep runnin’
…(Ooh! Ooh!)…
I feel like I’ve lost grip
Enchanted by your…pure beauty

The river keeps flowing
The time is ticking away fast
I gottah run this race
Today, I’ll win…

Enchantment enlivens
In my ecstatic heart
I see
A mountain of sheer wonders 
I witness the light at the
End of the tunnel 
We keep trippin’
Out! Out!
I feel like I’ve lost grip
Enchanted by your…pure beauty

Enveloped by darkness,
I realize that I’m on a good 
Start and I’m not alone – 
I’m very strong…

Enchantment does cheer up
My once sad, vibrant heart
I feel 
 The tears about to spring out  
I witness the eagle’s flight 
I gazed in wonder…
We keep failin’
Keep going!
I think I’ve let you down 
Enraged by my lack of boldness

Praying for relief
…can you hear me? …can you feel for me?
WAITING for some kind of answer – 
Have mercy…
Bring us peace and prosperity
