Fragile Spirit

Loneliness casts vague shadows, gray mist clouds my mind. Confused, my heart follows, a path, that is undefined. Can I see what is in front of me? Or do I see what is not there? Are my decisions based on reality, or am I totally unaware? Sadness dwells within my lonely heart, wrapped in memories of the past. So entwined, they refuse to part, hiding in the darkness they cast Feelings, a wary enemy to battle. I pray inner strength will remain Though I am weary, my spirit fragile, its my freedom that I fight to retain. Through the dark, I struggle on, seeking the light of tomorrow. Will I still be standing at dawn, or fall into the shadows of sorrow?
