there's hope at the end
Do you ever feel like
There is an emptiness inside you
An emptiness
That drains the light out of everything?
A black hole
Life in grayscale
Colors faded
Flavors muted
Voices distant
except
One voice as clear as day
The one voice I don't want to hear
It tells me all about:
-The pain
-The melancholy
-The meaninglessness
-The never ending repetitiveness
of it all
It asks me-
How will we get through:
-This day?
-This hour?
-This minute?
-This life?
I have no answers
Just tears
******
And yet
I always know
This is a transient and temporary state
I always recognize
This somber and dejected voice
It is not evil, It's not a liar
It's hurt.
In pain, and seeking solace
Maybe
It is a gift and its a curse
Its the connection to the Earth
Her winter sorrow
And her hibernation
Perhaps
It's this connection
Which also brings
the Joy, the Giddiness
and Brightness
Of spring and summer
******
You can move through this pain
I know
You always do
You keep the hope
warm
In the hearth of your soul
The hope that
Tomorrow
Will be a better day
With
a little more color
a little more music
a little more lightness
******
And so it was
