My Path.

I walk the sunbathed path, recovering from the storm.

The sun is shining weakly through the stubborn line of clouds.

I follow this path, the scenery never changing, my mind made up.

I am starting anew, the rain has cleansed my slate.

This is the path I think to myself.

And this is where I will be.

 

The sun loses its battle to the clouds, and the rain begins again.

It beats down on my defeated body, on my defeated mind.

The boom of the thunder frightens away the rest of my resolve.

The clang of the lightening illuminates my face, illuminates my fear.

Must I stay on this path?  

This cannot be my path, can it?

 

I battle on, unconscious of my thoughts anymore.

The rain begins to lose its resolve.

The thunder scares itself, afraid of its terrible power.

The lightening is strong, the lightening is ever illuminating.

If this is my path, I further contemplate.

I must stay on it, but can I?

 

Suddenly, the rain stops.

The thunder disappears, to haunt another poor soul.

The immortal lightening has been replaced by sun.

The sun has made its revival, it has returned with all its power.

I am still on my path, I think in amazment.

But who is this hero of the sun?

 

The sun becomes blinding,

Surely this means this mean the hero is coming,

Surely he will save me,

Surely he is my white knight,

Surely he is coming to me.

Can he be mine?

 

My eyes burn with the heat of the light,

It is over-powering, it is overwhelming,

I wish it to end, yet it awakens inside me something I have not yet felt,

I am curious, I am scared,

I am waiting,

Am I in love?

 

The light is gone, my eyes return to their reality,

I look to see my hero,

My savior,

My love,

And what do I see?

I see him.

 

He, who has filled my life with friendship,

He, who has cared for me,

He, who has lifted me up,

He, who has carried me on,

He, who I have loved as long as I have recognized my heart.

He, who is my one true love.

 

He takes my hand, my resolve is restored.

His kiss floats to my lips, my hope is returned.

His smell lingers in my nose, my heart is awakened.

Suddenly, my path changes,

It is unrecognizable,

The sun is strong, the path is clear, the path is anew.

 

This, this man, he is my path.

He is my life.

He is my happiness.

He is  my love.
