Dawn

An old one..

Dawn in my mind.

Lost and alone I grew cold,
Darkness wrapped around me,
Each step in fear of death,
I bled emotions in the silence.

There was yet a pale light ahead,
And voices, friends, calling my name,
I stumbled and crawled forward,
Making headway then sliding back.

A flickering lamp to light my way,
Dawn approaching slowly in my mind.
The sounds of friends grew nearer,
The words they spoke became clearer.

Through a mist of bitter tears
I watched the darkness fade behind,
Icy fingers still reaching out,
I walked into the new beginning.

The pain has dulled as helping hands,
Heal the wounds and speak softly,
Time will heal and emotions renew,
Life continues along my road.

I can't "edit" my post above? or am I not looking in the right area?

You only have 2 hours to edit something (I think). After that, the edit button disappears.

However, I can edit something in the poem if you like.

Ahh, I se, I just wanted to add that it was written 6 months after I seperated.

Thanks

Beautiful expression. Pain is always the journey of the light at the end of the tunnel.

Thank you, the light at the end of the tunnel is just a change in perception, the journey continues hopefully with increased clarity.
