Poetry Tuesday: The Shadow
In the shadows of a world gone astray,
I find myself lost, adrift, in disarray.
The threats that loom, the darkness they cast,
leave me yearning for safety, a refuge at last.A tempest rages in the depths of my soul,
as fears and anxieties take their toll.
In the midst of chaos, I long to be saved,
from the terrors that haunt me, unrelenting and grave.The burden of despair, a heavy shroud,
in my family’s eyes, they see my cloud,
a battle within, a darkness that’s real,
isolation, despair, an emotional ordeal.As I wander through this endless night,
searching for hope, for a glimmer of light,
a desperate plea, a call for release,
from the pain that seems to never cease.But as I face the abyss that beckons me near,
the love and support, so staunch, so clear,
in the warmth of those who care to stay,
I begin to find a path to a brighter day.The storm still rages, the world remains cruel,
but within these bonds, I find my fuel,
to fight the threats, confront the unknown,
for in unity, our strength has grown.With each step forward, a little less lost,
as we brave the tempest, no matter the cost.
In the darkest of hours, I’ve come to believe,
that safety’s not found in what we can’t perceive.It dwells within, in the strength we derive,
from the love and the hope that help us survive.
In the tumultuous sea of life’s endless race,
we find our sanctuary, our refuge, our space.Though chaos surrounds us, and threats may persist,
in unity, there’s a feeling we can’t resist.
For even in darkness, we’ll never be alone,
our safe haven found, in hearts we’ve known.So, while the world may still appear a haze,
“The Shadow” by Aleksander Dovganyuk-Krym
in friendship’s embrace, we’ll navigate its maze.
And even in turmoil, with courage unfurled,
we’ll find safety in the chaos of the world.
