A Look of Joy by ThePoetic1

A Look of Joy by ThePoetic1 A Look of Joy The sun is setting In the western sky Another day over Another day gone by The sky is dark blue The stars forever shine As I ponder my future And what I hope to find I cannot escape the sadness That overcomes me I cannot run from my problems That seems to always keep me - down I can only pray that I have the strength I can only hope to carry on I only wish I had a hand to hold Whisper “that you love me” for it is beautiful - sound The silence is deafening As I sit here alone My heart feels heavy in my chest Like a solid stone A cool breeze blows through my window It gives me an icy, cold chill I know I have the ability to succeed I know I have the strength and the will The darkness of the evening Surrounds me and creates a black mist Loneliness envelopes me like a warm embrace But I want and yearn for loving arms to hold – me I fantasize about being a mighty giant I wish that I were a mighty jet plane I fantasize about flying away to a land Where I can run through the valleys and be – free I stand outside my balcony I gaze at the stars above I yearn for the comfort of a friend I ache to be appreciated and loved The night air smells sweet I can hear the rustling of the leaves As the moonlight shines upon me I feel strong and I want to believe As time goes by the pain of the past Seems to disappear like a fading wind All my sins seem to wash away Washed away by the falling – rain I think of a time when I was loved By a woman who shared my dreams and hopes And I sometimes wonder If I’ll ever feel that love and hope – again The heart is a fragile thing As it beats every second in your chest Though it is a strong and relentless muscle It can easily be torn apart and laid to rest I feel there is courage in my heart Courage and the will to succeed There are days when I feel unloved Days when I have a deep yearning and need I hunger for something more I thirst for things of splendor and beauty I want to be understood and acknowledged Within me lies a deep and never ending – desire Sometimes I hear the voice of Satan Tempting me to quench my unholy thirst But I will not be tempted by the Devil Nor will I be drawn towards the evil of his – fire Many mornings I awake With tears in my eyes I feel that my life Is nothing but a big lie When the sun sets in the sky I lay down upon my bed I try to deal with the confusion That is always present in my head I know that many people suffer There are those who are suffering more than me I should be thankful for the things I have Because there are many who slumber in the – streets It is important to think positive It is important to hold my head high Though I walk through a tunnel of fire I will remain strong and I won’t be burned by the - heat I feel that my mind Is nothing more than a barren wasteland I’ve got to believe I possess intelligence I’ve got to believe I have the ability to understand Life can be a struggle It can be painful beyond measure I must learn to treat each day as a gift All that I receive should be considered a treasure How I wish that I were a king- And I’d have a lovely queen by my side Together we would rule our kingdom Together we’d create a wondrous and joyful – land I want to run across a beach along the ocean I want to swim and ride the waves of the sea Come and run with me among the dunes Hold me and kiss me as we lay in the – sand Though we do not possess wings Everyone has the ability to fly Though I feel unable to soar I will continue to try One day I will rocket through the clouds I will fly towards the stars of space And when I return to the earth below Everyone will finally see a look of joy upon my face "In Every Soul a Poet Silently Lingers" - ThePoetic1 |
