Strength

Strength

A Poem by lovejulez03

I am there.
I kneel at the top, looking down over the world
The sounds of people are scarce.
The lights of the streets are no more.
There's a mist that covers me in it's entirety and I feel consumed with doubt
This feeling is overwhelming and everything seems to be pushing in on me
I can hear your voice as if you were right beside me, warm breath on my ear
I can feel your lips as if you were kissing me forehead, with never ending passion
The leaves on the trees whip through the air,
Spreading colors of green, brown, gold, and red
The sun sets over the mountains of pain
Darkness looms and I feel nothing
A tear for you, I shed
It pierces the coldness on my cheeks and warms me
I open my eyes and look to the sky, into the nothingness and I feel a strange sense of you
The wall that surrounds me begins to shake
The ground beneath me rumbles with a fierceness that I've never known
Feel the insides crumble, come crashing to the ground
The unknowing is penatrating through every pore and every vein of my being
Trying to get a grasp on realty seems so daunting
Turning and twisting, fighting and screaming
Light ahead, but there seems no visible path to take to get there
My soul starts to run towards it, groping through the dark
I cry out in the night
Your love is all I know and all I've ever really wanted
Touching my spirit, I see your hand and it reaches for me.. waiting
I feel my legs growing stronger and I stand, lifting my face to take in everything around me
I lean forward, trusting and I close my eyes ready to jump
Trust.
The wind whips through my hair and the sound of the crashing waves freezes my heart
The thought of the warmth of you keeps me going
Faith
Faith to be near you again
Love
Love that binds us
Consuming everything within me
These broken pieces of me shine bright
I go out from my body and I can see myself standing there
Wishing. Waiting. Hoping.
Turning, I see you and my heart stops.
You smile at me - that smile that I've longed so much to see again
It's a smile of hope. A smile of comfort. A smile of more to come.
It envelopes
And you open your arms to me and I am at ease with myself
Going back within myself I open my arms to you and close my eyes once more..
And I jump into the wind
