Fragments of a future
From splinters of a past
Where memories have slain
Scars, forever meant to last
No rainbows to crawl upon,
Nor golden rays of light
Left in surrounding blackness
A dying will to fight
The sun seems not to shine,
Clouds loom in darkest grey
To fall upon the solid ground
With one more chance to pray
Heaven-bound, to call aloud
Please tell me why this has to be
It's all I ask, no, demand
Why is it I can't see
Mirror, mirror, hangs on the wall
No reflection left to view
A crumbled soul lays to the floor
With all her trust in You

This is a very painfilled write. Hope must be clung to even when it seems like it is too late. That is when we need it most. Each stanza tells a story in itself. It is always darkest before the dawn.
Great write hun.

this is beautifully written making me think of desperation in the seek to know answers too quickly, when ever we are meant be not the seeker, but the sought...sometimes the answer lies in the experience itself... i loved the way this write speaks to all...for who does not question and quest for truth?

Thank you for your comments, truly appreciate them. We all seek the truth, in many things. But sometimes I feel like when you're not really seeking it, is when the answers will appear.

so true, they seem to hit you from out of the blue...gives you this feeling of wow, sometimes a pow that almost knocks you off your feet, sometimes as quiet as a sigh, just an ah huh, like it was buried deep inside you and just foung its way to the surface gently as a bubble rising...loved this write truely...
