To lift spirits

To lift spirits

A Poem by B.J

A lone wanderer passes by
A gleaming shape
For a gentle heart
With a vision
For living in paradise
A shadow passes over
A lonely heart
I know you are wandering about
I feel your air breeze past
A gleaming light catches my eye
My spirits are mourning
My life immune to my feelings
I wait patiently for you
To lift my spirits
I know you are waiting for me
I am a lonely wanderer
With a vision of life
Spirit filled
Looking for a light to share
I am here
A shadow lurks behind
Though devastating
Haunting
My time will survive
I will bring myself to love
To live and die in my life
To laugh at life 
My spirits rise 
A lone wanderer
Found the light of life
A gentle heart
With a vision
Will no longer live in despair

Hauntingly vibrant. You paint a picture of a stark reality which draws the reader in. It puts then in the story. Lovely!

I am certainly finding my way now. All in a new world.
I have to agree, the darkness will always try to shade the light, but key word is
"Try" when this happens we must reach further toward the light, cause darkness
devours the weak, good write!

Thank you so much for your kind words
No matter how far into the light we travel seems the dark shadow will follow us though at a distance just waiting for the right moment to try and overshadow us.Stay going forward into the light darkness doesn't like the light and knows that not everyday can be sunny.Fool him paint the sun upon the sky on those cloudy days.Good job
