Portal of Hope
Remain aware of the portal you are looking through...
Staring through my life's portal, hope sharpens,
Soft light brushes the scars etched upon my heart,
Like smoke in a crowded room, thoughts blind meโ
Coughing wildly, I glimpse an emotional landscape.
Beyond my vision, doubts continue to murmurโ
Several heartbeats drown in waves of confusion.
Sunlight reaches out, a strong reminder of loveโ
Tidal clouds roll doubt upon mental pebbles.
A seagull sings as awareness peers through its portal,
A shift in perspective reveals a hidden pastโ
As a breeze of enlightenment carries fresh oxygen,
Burdens dance away like sycamore seeds, waving goodbye.
Twilight drapes its cloak upon the approaching eve,
Whispering softly for me to depart,
So adieu to the pain I shall no longer graspโ
A portal of hope has unfurled at last.
