My tears fall
Onto this page
Smearing the ink
Leaving the words
Blurred together
On these lines
My tears flow
I’m slowly breaking down
My solitude is escaping me
No longer can I
Be all alone
Meditation
Is now harder to do
No longer can I
Find my needed solitude
Sun set and sun rise,
So desperately do I need
To slow down,
To breathe and relax
My tears fall down
Softly cascading down my face
I’m turned away,
I’m tossed aside,
I’m now abandoned
Silently I step
Stumbling through the darkness
Fearful am I,
I’m lost in darkness
No longer can I
See the stars
In the heavens above me
No longer do they
Light my way
I lost my way
So long ago
I now stumble
Through the darkness
No stars light my way
I’m lost,
Alone, but not,
Isolated from everyone,
I’m so scared,
Afraid and confused
I lost my way
I don’t know
Which way to turn,
Which path to take
The darkness now
Has come suffocating
Each step I take
Is going deeper-
Deeper into the darkness
I am now blinder
Stumbling through,
Looking for the light
At the end of the pain.
My tears fall
Smearing the ink,
Blurring the words
That I write
The pain has overcome me
The darkness has suffocated me
Peace has escaped me
I now just stumble
Lost on my way
I pray for guidance
I pray for strength
I pray for light
My tears flow
Cascading down
One day, I know
Peace and light shall come
One day, I know
I shall once again
Find my way
