Found You.

For so many years I took refuge inside, Inside my thick shell and have refused to come out. Like the snail I was. Have been coping with the cloudy and dark Sky looming for this long. The wave of the ocean has taken away with its force, all I held in high esteem. Waking up everyday into perpetual darkness Was for me, more than been confined within the walls of a prison. Could not find a cool place of rest For that which provides coolness has been uprooted ...and all hope was lost. Not an iota of faith was left even within me But somehow, something kept me on Reasons to give up came, but I refused taking that route I saw why I should stop pressing I was just not ready to let go because in fate I still hope. Then a miracle happened, The least believable happened to the most unthoughtful human. It happened to me just when I was not watching Suddenly, the long tunnel came to an end and a bright light of hope was smiling at me The cloudy and dark sky have given way to a lively daylight. The thundering and rumbling of the ocean has finally settled down for still calmness The prisoner has finally been set free The uprooted began to grow with radiance and beauty Then I realized the only reason why I kept on was because somehow, I knew you were going to come through for me. You came through and wrought the miracles I have in years thought less possible So what if I had given up? well, I did not and I found you and you have made waiting for this long after all, worthwhile.
