After The Rain

Feelings

I found myself drowning 
in my own tormented tears 
nowhere to run 
nowhere to hide 
I begged for some forgiveness 
from dark and lonely skies! 

Life had left me long ago 
 body carried on 
all my sorrow sealed beneath... 
a soul to call upon 

Empty of emotion 
on bended knees I prayed 
to touch your hand one more time 
and chase the dark away! 

Now we stand together, 
a smile upon our face 
The light ahead it shines a path 
forever to embrace. 

This road has been a mindful one, 
your shoes a painful walk... 
my only wish, to bathe your feet 
and kiss them dry with warmth 

No more a heart is bleeding, 
surrendered to a anew 
from far away a sign of hope 
happened upon my view

Hi Rapture, I love the content of this deep write, the emotions ever flowing through your lines. I am so glad that your write ended in the rays of hope when it had started in the depths of despair. You have taken us through the deepest emotions releasing the emotions of the reader. You know how to truly make the heart sing. Have a wonderful Tuesday. Hugs always....Mike.

Triumphant reawakening and a good look at the strength that can provide. Sometimes it takes an intervention of sorts to get things moving back in the right direction even if it means being carried part of the way. Great job!!
