A Spark in the DarknessA Poem by NomiOnce again a familiar stranger has crossed my path and forced me to take a look in the mirror, I felt as though I have known him perhaps from a life that my subconscious only remembers, but as I gazed deep into my eyes the sight that reflected was pleasantly refreshing, a security and satisfaction that I wasn't prepared to recognize consumed my stare. The world is changing and I too am transforming along with it. I am filled with anticipation for the future that is adventurously unknown to me. However my dreams are filled with the echoing murmurs of pessimism that desperately tries to keep me lost in my safe illusions, I am now deaf to their sounds. My ears hear only the insightful melodies that carry in the breeze which surrounds me. Destiny continues to write the words that fill the ever turning pages of my life. My hunger for knowledge and thirst for enlightenment have not yet been satisfied and still cling to my craving bones. My purpose has begun to embrace me. my senses are tantalized with this intensified urgency to conquer my fears, cherish my mistakes and take my leap forward denying the desire to stay where I am comfortable, for my true inner peace is growing as my heart is finally what I am fallowing. I am no longer afraid to face my reflection. Tomorrow awaits me and I am ready for reality © 2008 NomiReviews
