Friends Sharing Similar Darkness

Friends sharing thoughts
Of poetry from the heart
Two worlds seemingly the same
Yet very much apart
Embarking upon a dream,
Investment in a lifetime
They thought they had gained

The realm they now reside in
One darkened and in vain
Staying for good reasons
Only they can understand
There empathy for others
Can be seen from far off lands
But to share with the one they love
Will just not happen on any day

Maintaining a meager existence
On crumbs dropped by mad men
Learning how to protect
The very essence of their being
Locking soul up tight
Until danger goes away
Knowing there is hope just beyond
The next corner, or mountain over there
They cautiously stay  



Having more then just themselves
Invested in this blackened union
Keeping faith close to their hearts
Protecting there loved ones during
Stormy nights and darkened days

These friends know in their hearts
The day of birth into the world
Lit by loves powerful glow
Is coming, its coming, we know
And upon that day we’ll sing
Never to look back again
For are fight through the darkness
Shall make the walk in the light
That much more precious
One not taken in vain

Friends sharing similar darkness
But knowing in their hearts
That the day of reckoning is coming
It’s a matter of faith
That leads them through
Knowing loves sweet embrace
Will be part of their world too

I wrote this for someone special, she knows who she is. I read her poetry and found out how much we had in common. My heart goes out to her, I understand her world and I believe there will be a time that the both of us will walk in the light that love gives off. I am here if you need me, just a few clicks away.
Love, Cerenity

Truly beautiful hon, those two will find their way again, they know the truth, they have the will, time and karma will be kind to them.
Beautifully and sensitivly written Cerenity.

Hi
Click,Isis,Sandra

Thanks so much for your wonderful replys to this poem, some times I wonder if I am not the mad person for staying in a relationship that has gone so very wrong, but then I hear of others that to live similar lives and thier reasons for doing so and then I know its just a matter of time before I will find that in which I dream of to be loved, some times the road to happiness is rough and painful and even very long but in the end, no one can say I did not try or that there was other choises, not that I have to prove to anyone my actions, but there is so very much more in volved than just me! and I feel for all who go through as I and pray for the very best for them, thanks again.

Love, Cerenity

Cerenity, like you said earlier, you do what you feel is right.  You have to try for yourself, to know in your heart, you gave it your all, and just didn't throw in the towel like so many do so quickly these days.
You have various reasons, others may not understand, that is their problem, you owe no explanations, in the end you do what you want and HAVE to do.
As you said that way you know heart and soul your really did try and try again.  It is so hard for sometimes most others don't understand why you are still there, and perhaps they lose sympathy and understanding by saying 'Well what are you still doing there?' but you can only move on when it is right for you, when you know there will be no regrets further down the road.
Strength in these dark days my friend from one who understands...  *hugs*

"oooohhhhh but it makes you wonder"  mezmorizing actually, bewildering and at the same time befuddling.  Indeed I hope you find what you're looking for, but this one still makes me ponder endlessly.

Thanks,
Jeremy
