From Beginning to End

From Beginning to End

A Poem by Mysty Johnson

From beginning to end
love has been a part of life
yes there was pain, sorrow too
yet this heart never emptied 
it overflows with love for many
expands when it finds new love
yet never completely fills.

Sorrow and pain
from beginning to end
lingers, peeping in from
dusty corners of the mind,
places where the loneliness
hides, never showing 
to anyone the truth inside.

Happiness changes perspective
and hides the sorrow, the pain
from beginning to end 
love endures and welcomes 
happiness into the heart,
into the mind it fills
from beginning to end.

This is really great! I love how you keep repeating "from beginning to end" it sort of seems like a mantra to me.
