My head is now out of the clouds,
My feet firmly planted on the ground,
No more fantasies or forgiveness,
The heart breaking is such a tragic sound.

You've taken all my strength,
It has been drained away,
Now I am only a weak shadow of my former self,
At the end of another cold, hard day.

Emotionally I'm oh so feeble,
Exhausted and infirm,
Wasted and powerless,
Visually so easy to confirm.

Where has my strength gone?
And why does it fail me now?
When I need it more than ever?
The dark forces take a bow.

I embraced all of life's good things,
God himself, new age and more,
Yet when I need my courage the most,
All bravery runs out the door.

Till I'm standing before you,
Cowering from the harsh sunlight,
Somewhere along life's journey,
I've lost the will to fight.

For now I'm just too tired,
Worn out both physically and emotionally,
I must retreat and rediscover that affirmation,
And discard the veil of darkness trying to smother me.

The sky darkens, the storm clouds gather,
I bravely face their force alone,
With complete love and complete trust in my soul,
I've paid my dues, no more I wish to atone.

A beautiful metamorphose,
Ready to face any terror,
The stipulations quite simple,
Love does and always will conquer all.

The battle rages on.....

Hi Isis, sounds like a kind of depressed time for you. You express it well, as always. That last line, funny I have a poem entitled Love Conquers Nothing..
All we can do is keep trying I guess.
Take care

Words are things, and a small drop of ink, falling, like dew, upon a thought produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions think.

Isis,
really touching piece here. Take courage, take heart take the scarecrow's brain if you need it.
          
The heart breaking is such a tragic sound.  

Yet when I need my courage the most,
All bravery runs out the door.
Till I'm standing before you,
Cowering from the harsh sunlight,
Somewhere along life's journey,
I've lost the will to fight.

If you have no will of your lean on us we are the voices of the night and we will surround you and lift you up.
Be well
Kethry

but it is the loss that shapes the image,
gathers the flowers weaves the garland."-

My friends, thankyou for your loving vibes and wishes, I truly appreciate them.  But one thing I will clear up, I was talking generally, about life in general, a battle against dark thoughts, dark feelings, dark soul etc...
Thanks everyone, James, Sven, Kethry, Sash, Jesse and Cat, old Isis feels right loved about now
