After Long Uninterrupted Silence

 

After long uninterrupted silence

Do my thoughts within now dwell

And all the clandestine secrets

Are tales I shall not tell

I become insightful and insideful

Beneath a furrowed brow

My thoughts, not to tomorrow

My thoughts are with me now

The plans, the goals, the schemes I’ve made

Deep and dark do they now run

Of all the things I’ve said and been

Of all the things I’ve done

And yet tomorrow awaits me

And with it, comes a dawn

It gives me strength of character

It gives me strength to carry on

This monastic life that I lead

Of habit and solitude

My joys will be forthcoming

And my faith will be renewed

That all the labours I indulge

And these secrets I possess

Pale now the worried doubts

That soon I will address

The simplicity that has become

All the things I do each day

Shall bring me ever closer

To newer means and ways

Of becoming what I strive for

And the dreams my heart desires

The love that awaits so far from me

The hopes that burn like fires

Shall only be a passing stage

Within this life I lead

To gain all I wish and want for

And all I ever need

"My thoughts, not to tomorrow My thoughts are with me now" Yes! this is so true and very well written here, like your write.

That is very beautiful. It made me tear up. You have such talent, and it is only getting better the more you write.
