Born of the dark -Raised to the light
The final chapter
In shadows depth
I breathe the silence
Like mist above dark waters
repentance weaves illusions
of salvation
of hope
of forgiveness
But I was born of the dark
light was never mine to hold
forever beyond my grasp
I exist like a shade
transparent
ignored
abandoned
alone
Satan was never a friend
only an unwanted companion
a poison voice, whispering
reminding me of my worth(less)
kindness is all I sought
longing for truth
pleading for redemption
I stole naught but my youth for want of freedom
from release of pain
from an unwanted life
from loneliness
I never wished to be born
forced to tread the waters of
Deceit
Drugs
Abuse
Addiction
where is my light?
Savior, abandon me not.
I beg of you
envelope me within your warm embrace
before I wane.
mine eyes are heavy
my soul fades to the grey
luminescent rays pierce the blackness of my life
and shines upon my soul
brilliant dews of light
cascades like ripples across water
I feel a glow within my heart
Angels whisper before the dawn
‘you who were born of the dark, now rise to the light
be at peace my child
for no longer shall you be alone'
