Locked Away

Grief and illness have

  kept the pen from

      my hand.

 

Overtaken by life's grip

hanging onto distant dreams

        to come. 

 

Pulling close the darkness

  like soft warm blankets

        holding me.

 

Taking my self awareness

 to another dark room

       hidden away.

 

Searching for soft breeze

   of air against skin

      awakening me.

 

With unsteady legs shaking

    I walk into sunshine

          blinding me. 

 

Knowing here is life

leaving death far behind

            I limp,

 

           to begin

 

             again.

 

Please tell me what you think

    I SEE HEARTACHE BUT HOPE AND FAITH ALSO

    We all have faced sad times and heartache but somehow we keep plugging on with life. Hope and faith are our constant companions during times like these.'s

    The sunshine awaits you,
    smiles golden rays upon your image,
    gleeful to see you again,
    as am I......

    Love and hugs to you!
