[hometext] => This poem was written for a friendship which came to a close.
[bodytext] => Did I really ever exist? Or perhaps I never really lived Am I just a mirror image of a shadow that was meant to be Am I an array of light that is not meant to be seen by the world I come and go without a trace Some will remember the shattering of light while others will not Most will not remember the light for they are lost in the darkness of night Others will hold onto the light as quickly as it comes and departs They will never notice that light can overtake light As the darkness will overcome darkness When the light shines through Darkness scatters For Darkness is afraid of light Light is all good It brings forth joy and suffering But darkness only brings more darkness Did I really ever exist As the trees shimmer as light shines through The light from the shadows block out the darkness It scatters it as if the moonlight Takes on the suns reflection Sending rays across the vast beauty of the forests Falling like simple beams of light Onto the forest floor Revealing the emptiness of sorrow When the lilies fade And the moss takes over For the light cannot be seen by the darkness It is overtaken by grief and wandering Did I ever really exist As the moon fades on the distant horizon The moon no longer reflects off the Sun’s goodness The brightness of the moon cannot be seen Nor the distant rays of warmth from the Sun Life is scattered as innocence is take away Joy of the river bend The rustling of the creek The cobblestones are silent as if the babbling creek has stopped For the Sun and moon are no longer one There is no more light within the dark For the moon has gone out The Sun refuses to reflect its rays off the moon So light can exist in the darkness Did I ever really exist As the mountains bring joy An array of hope to all those who are lost For those who are mourning As if one never felt the brilliant chill of air Of wintertime or the mountains As the snow begins to fall as to purify the earth From the darkness within The lingering of wanting to be Escapes our mind as we look Onward and see the beauty folding Beyond our very eyes For the Sun and Moon is one The Sun reflects of the Moon To brighten what is hidden The Sun needs the moon And the Moon needs the Sun If the Moon did not exist The Sun would not exist It reveals what is not known to the human eye The vastness of what has come and what will come For if light really over took light Darkness will not exist Did I ever really exist? Or perhaps have I never really lived…… [comments] => 0 [counter] => 148 [topic] => 48 [informant] => Prasalina [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )
