Surrounded by Darkness,
frightening yet calming.
The spirit is lost,
looking for the wavering beacons

The spirit calls out,
but the darkness swallows the plea
Forlorn, the spirit falls into
the engulfing abyss

Falling, the spirit spots a beacon,
wavering, yet constant.
Heads toward the beacon
The spirit finds another lost soul

Connected by pain,
the two search for the way back.
As the darkness begins to fade,
The two souls begin to shine once again

Wow. Great poem! Maybe you should have titled it "Lost and Found." I can really relate to the theme - it hit home for me right now...I very much enjoyed reading it.

A dark message of hope, it can happen, I'm living proof... Well done hon  

 There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self...

I hope they left a bread crumb trail or something - I'm still flailing down here in that abyss you speak of.  Great poem, dhuron.

Thank you all for the replies.  This was inspired by a very close friend.  Without I would still be lost in the darkness without hope.

Well Daniel, hold onto that special friend, we all need someone like that for courage and support..

dhuron: here's to your friend.
A big thank you for this, And I want that trail also.

 I howl a mornful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.

Thank you for the comments Joel, a trail...hmmmmm Look for 2 stars in the darkness that'll lead the way*S*

 The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."
