RȧïïLïïÈñ†

Fear and sadness consumed me

I breathed no existence and walked amongst the living lifeless

Wishing for death to knock on my door with welcoming arms

Never hoping or wishing for anything more

Could I ever come back from this desolation?

I walked alone down an empty road afraid

Fearful to let anyone in

Scared and abandoned

Not willing to open up to those who worried and feared for my life

Apprehensive to let them inside and take a glimpse of the hurt that lied within

Until I met a stranger with a heart of gold

And a willingness to break my torments'

No matter how close to the edge of surrender I was

Waiting with hands stretched out to pull me up when I finally hit rock bottom

Her essence alone brought me back and gave me my life

My existence and my strength

My endurance to live and breathe and exist to the very end!

And now where fear once coexisted with misery

Resides a feeling I never knew existed

Happiness and life!

Though life will always be treacherous and unkind

We have no control

I no longer live in fear

However I have come across a new sentiment

That can be just as detrimental

And can take anyone to place that is unkind

Anger and rage lurks within far depths of my subconscious 

While I have journeyed far

I am far from reaching my destiny

I have been consumed by sadness and fear

It took over and gave me no reason to live

Now that I have much in my life to live for

I cannot allow myself to be engulfed in rage and revenge

And be taken back once again to a place of affliction

Worse to be overcome with hate and misery

A fighter to the very end

I shall live my remaining days

Resilient as the day I was reborn

And given a second chance!

No matter what happens!
