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."

Despair well penned. To suffer by choice is human, but are we only this and nothing more?

great description of struggle, both religious and internal (some say they are one in the same). the imagery was what it should be here, vivid and descriptive. it sort of gets your heart racing in time with the character. making hte reader feel what the character feels, which is number 1 in my list. good work.
