Struggle

Struggle

Within the tenebrosity of my soul it stirs
Awakening a sanguine desire of life
Amid the surrounding darkness it reaches
Inquiring, attempting to reforge its once perceived life
Isolated it clenches to a vacuous life
Falling ever deeper into darkness
Wailing hoping to be heard in this abyss
Perceiving a presences it clings to hope
Hope becoming despair
And the despair turning into misery

For what was believed to be mine is not
A Dream followed that is not my own
Forsaken I sank ever so rapidly within darkness
Reason will not give in
It summons from within my soul
A thought once lost
Muffled long ago by the deafening sound of silence

Thought gives birth to voices and images
Voices I believed were lost
Images of places forgotten long ago
This thought grows and spreads like a vine
Clinging to my soul
Awakening a fervor for life
Nothing was ever lost
It waited
Waited to be found
To be the Force
To be the Fire
To be the Aspiration
Which now feeds my soul
