Journey Towards a New Future
At the edge of despair , i stand in wait,
Quiet and content , awaiting my fate,
The hour was late and time had run its
course ,
No longer can i draw hope from any
source,
For years i struggled through hardships
and misery.
Wondering if i had been victim to a
naysayers banter,
So i lie in wait now in defeat,
Waiting for Grim's clutches , to release me
providing a quick retreat.
A light then shone , brighter then any I've
ever witnessed ,
An angel descended and stood before my
eyes,
Whispering gently, '' Let me free you from
all the lies ''
She sensed my broken spirit and a need
for guidance,
A promise was then made , with her loving
assurance
A journey we undertook to renew my faith,
The path was riddled with misery and
hate,
At time it proved more then my mind could
contemplate,
Whenever the journey proved impossible
for me to bear,
She would gaze into my eyes and say ''
never despair ''.
The path was long and never-ending,
Till we reached a sight of pure wonder , no
man could deny,
I took rest in her arms , reaching out for
her hand,
She held mine firmly , and assured this
moment would never end,
However her time was short on this mortal
realm ,
Our hands parted , and she ascended
back to the heavens ,
My life once lost and fragmented, i had
now regained,
A newfound hope and determination i
have gained,
No longer surrendering to the whims of
fate ,
I journey ahead , towards a new future i
will create.
