The Demarcation Zone

(A lone voice whispers) As individuals, we don't sometimes realise the scope of utter hopelessness, until we unknowingly endure it Or witness it But within all that emotional spiritual warfare A glorious Demarcation Zone always exists Between Pain and Salvation Just awaiting courageous souls to cross it To reach a new emotional nation To find a new paradigm of looking at something filled with hope To cope A whisper of something glorious Something to soothe the courageous So when Hopelessness strikes Look deep inside and hear that inner voice whisper Hold strong Try to stay the course Cling on to your strength Let's cross over The Demarcation Zone So when darkness looms When all things seem despondent and desperate Like Wormwood Star The Dark Comet Always remember Your part in The Great Game Is not over yet (C) Copyright John Duffy A demarcation zone is a boundary or limit that separates two areas. In this case, Hopelessness and Hope.
