LishShow poetry

And so,
from the niphablepsia of my apparent ruin,
this light has shone forth
and exposed my inner sthula sharira.
The once heinous and repulsive entelechy
has been reshaped and metastasized,
restored to pristine
...........................Serenity.
Those festering wounds of regret and sorrow
have been washed clean by this ever flowing stream:
................................................................Forgiveness;
and bandaged by the hands of
.....................................Love.
Loathing's cruel imprisoning
grasp has finally fallen away,
leaving before me a wondrous new freedom
that causes my soul to sing.
How could I have been lost for so long?
My eyes,
once sewn shut by the rusty needles of
..............................................Depression,
have been reopened;
and the view is glorious to behold.
...........................................O!
................................................How I have longed for this!
The oppression and self-hatred within
has dissipated with the rising sun,
leaving behind an empty vessel.
.................................But
that vessel was soon refilled with luminous
....................................................Joy
and the dazzling glow of
...............................Hope.
That mugient corpse of long ago has been put to rest,
and now,
I stand in its place.
A new life awaits me,
and I am ready to start
..............................Living.
