The Un Yielding

It's the unyielding
pulling sensation
that holds me in it's grip
twists me inside out
churns my thoughts

rages deep within
storms so wildly
that when it finally calms
and leaves me in peace
a hurt, even worse than that
which began it all...
continues

as the knots
begin to unravel
I am left worn
and wasted...

wondering when and if
this game of life
will come to a conclusion
that I can live with

one where comfort comes
to my waking hours,
not just in sleep

one where I can look
in the mirror and recognize
the face looking back
with the knowledge that
there is a tomorrow
to look forward to

and a trust in today
to lead me there...
allowing me to embrace
once more, new memories
that lie ahead.

A weary reflection laced with hope. Very nice, Wynter.
