The Hope Within the Light
Beyond the flattering glimpses of hope,
Dwells the trembling reality of a fragile soul
Entangled in the chains of wishes gone astray,
Trapped in the deceitful realm of an unorganized dream
Too stubborn to come true,
Captured by the gloom of a lonely day
The whispers within their soul will say.
I understand you, Willow Tree
How your roots are grounded in the soil of pain
As your soul drags on and tears remain
That constant burden and heavy weight
Upon the branches of your faith
But still you must endure the rain,
The pulling of the winds disdain
Pulling you away from the hope worth keeping,
Yes!
Yes!
I understand your weeping.
I know your sorrow, Silent Shadow;
Your happiness hanging on the gallows
Mimicking who you wish to be
But who can know,
And who will see
The tears that flow in darkness there
There beyond what you can bear.
Beyond the screams of misery,
Hidden in darkness silently?
Misfortunes out to steal your life,
And rob you of your wishful light!
It keeps you in the darkness crying.
No one sees your soul is dying.
No one knows what sorrows taking!
No one knows how bad its aching
To shout the name of destiny!
I hear your haunted symphony!
I hear that dreadful tune within
The strings of woeful violins!
I feel your failure, Fallen Leaf
How you fell down to
The ground of grief
Fell down there
To be stepped on still.
I know how that failure feels.
For beyond my flattering glimpses of hope,
Dwells the trembling reality of my fragile soul
Entangled in the chains of wishes gone astray,
Im trapped in the deceitful realm
Of an unorganized dream
Too stubborn to come true,
Captured by the chance of another day
The whispers within my soul will say.
Please understand my troubled soul
And the music it seems
That sorrow composed,
But know I want to live my life
Know I still believe the light
I understand the willow tree
The silent shadow, the fallen leaf.
Though sorrow tells such constant lies
And the wind will witness my lonely cries
Know that life is in my eyes.
For I have to be the midnight moon,
I have to shine amidst the gloom.
I have to shine throughout the night,
For hope shall dwell within the light.

THIS...was just mezmerizing.
Absolutely stunning and it sang to my
own soul and stubborn dreams. Hope
is one of the hardest things to carry
but it is possible to do so with just a
little Faith.
Just lovely. Thank you for sharing it
and please continue to be the
midnight moon.
Be well,
~Loende |
