Mirror Of Hope

Mirror Of Hope

A Poem by Jason Shadows
"

Look Away From Within.

"
"Held By The Angels Above As Their Tears Shine For Me.
 Creeping Darkness Pulls Me Down Far As I Can See.
 Hunted By The Monsters Of My Past.
 Swinging Wildly To Force Them Into Ash.
 
 Burning Scars Ignite On My Heart.
 Buried In The Sands Of Time Just Lost Apart.

 It Hurts So Much Just As It Would Be As Such.
 Walking With Heaven's Lantern.
 Torn By Hell's Twisted Pattern.
 Shadows Turning Away As I Sway. 

 My Memories Are Silently Waiting.
 My Own Soul Is Fading. 
 I Fall But Keep Falling Alone.
 Just To Keep Holding On.

 I Keep Sliding Down.
 Just So Many Demons Around.
 My Light Is Running Out.
 As I Stand On Top Of The River Of Doubt.

 I Know I Just Keep Looking In Destiny's Scope.
 I See Myself Hanging On The Bottomless Slope.
 But I'm Running Out Of Rope.
 I Just Keep Crying In Front Of The Mirror Of Hope."

Deep and full of sadness. I often wonder why some people beat themselves up over their past mistakes (my take on this poem). You can't change the past, so why let it rob you of your future. The key to a lot of self loathing is to forgive yourself and move forward. Especially if your loved ones can forgive you then let it go and pursue a future with people that understand your past and accept you. I use "you" here as a catch all and obviously not you specifically since I have no idea who you are. :)

Wonderful write! Heaven's lantern and Hell's twisted pattern-oh that was some fantastic imagery. The comparison between Destiny and the Mirror of Hope was great too-like how one might search and search for fate, but it's there all along in themselves or in their reflection. Very nice!
