In my prayers I reach for a reply
In a guardian angel I ask for someone to join me
Alone I look up into emptiness
In words whispered in questioning tones I cry inside

The darkness comes and takes over the replies
A light refuses to go out so I shout inside my mind
My eyes open up to the simplicity of existing in pain
A pain of numbness in another empty page of life

Blessed you are, for you have been given a purpose, but for what
Others are always questioning your space to exist
In warmth so deep that everything comes from it
My purpose exists to float the universe with

Time exists as a tyrant to take your breathe away
But you must struggle with the temptation to give up the battle
So I sleep in prayers that ask for a purpose to exist with
Can words carry the beating heart throughout time
To say I existed in God’s light

My shadow says no but my spirit say I will be carried away in thoughts
For in my emptiness lies the blossom of life escaping
And the ghostly image dancing among the angels of hope
To the morning when my sunlight will cover the darkness
And my rainbow will have its moment
And disappear in the smile within the corpse left

You have some wonderful images in this sad poem. Perhaps your purpose in life is to enjoy it?

(big hugggssssss) This is so very sad, sweet friend, my heart goes out to you and these doldrums you've been experiencing, but I know deep down with all my heart that as every cloud has its rain, every rainbow will have its time to shine, and joy will come to your heart and bring a smile to your heart always as God's promise! (sigh) We all love you so much, sweet friend, my thoughts are with you always! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
