PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Walking into the dark, thick fog on a rainy night

Waiting for my heart to lead me where I belong

Day after day my soul leaks lower on hope

When I find the thing I was actually seeking for

Is not what I am meant to have

I’m cold, I’m alone

But through all the despair

I see a light

But it is so far away

I keep walking wishing this is no illusion

The light seems to grow slowly bigger as I approach

I try to keep my hopes from rising

But they see the light too and can’t help but rise

I start to walk faster

As the light grows more rapidly

I start to run

I can feel the warmth of the light reaching my face

As I advance nearer

After what feels like eternity

The light is suddenly encompassing me

Within it’s amiable and fervent rays

I wait ever so impatiently

For something to happen

As abruptly as it appeared

The light abandons me

And then I see you standing there

Smiling at me with the utmost compassion

Arms out stretched

I reach for you

But it was all a deception

Cruel trickery

There was no light

You were never there

It was only my mind playing cruel tricks

On my soft naive soul

I wake up as though it was all a dream

And continue with my life

Only to be interrupted again later

With the same illusion

Repeating the cycle forever to come

Until I get over you once and for all
