The World From the Shadowlands
I'm not seeking an end to this,
Because I feel that feeling as sad,
Broken and remorseful, as I am
Might propel me
To doing something
About changing my existence
For the better, not temporarily,
But permanently;
I want this summer
To be the summer
Whereby I effectuate this change,
Effectively return to the world
From the shadowlands
Where I've existed for so long.
(originally written - with recent slight edits - straight from the heart as diary notes, about a year ago in the spring of 2014, and so reflecting a state of mind I don't happen to be in at the present time, thank goodness I might add.)
