Where the Wind Blows

~Afraid With No Light~

            When I was careless not to withdraw & decided to stay 
                    laying on my back with a low vision today
                    I got so lonely watching the stars fade away
                        & the rising moon took no time to stay
                          to shed a light upon my window bay.
                        Abruptly the wind blew my spirit away
                            during that lightless night of May.
                              
               Here Is Where The Wind Blew My Spirit & Soul Away. 
                                          
                     Thats when I screamed let me die or cry
                      let me sleep so deep not to feel I need 
                          to kneel like a slave to feel safe
                              for just a brink of a light
                             to not disappear out of sight.
                          Afraid I am with no light tonight
                       thats when my wisdom flew out of sight.                              
                       Abruptly the wind stole my soul away
                          during that lightless night of May
                       leaving my body lifeless with no delay.      
                                    Anyone, Help Me.

My dearest, dearest Therese, the pain is intense, loneliness probably stronger but the light you are seeking there it is at the door, waiting to let it in into your beautiful soul! Your poem is fantastic and I give you High marks for that plus my love! Thank you!
