Array ( [sid] => 169995 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Finding My Purpose [time] => 2012-01-06 14:09:54 [hometext] => This poem is about my journey from depression to starting my road down my optimal path. [bodytext] => Up on a mound of doubt I sat

Rain fell and puddles of sorrow collected in the flat

Painful tears rolled down my face

I was ready to leave, what a waste

I looked to the East, for something caught my sight

Took a step forward, and started my hike

Through the forest of redemption I made my descent

A transition to hope, my mind underwent

At the edge of the forest there laid my vision

A sign from above, to just keep living

I crossed a calm stream of excited smiles

There will be more hills to climb, some may be miles

But for now I no longer feel that of worthless

I just lay in the sun in the meadow of purpose. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 118 [topic] => 19 [informant] => nluchett [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => InspirationalPoems )
Finding My Purpose

Topic: InspirationalPoems



Up on a mound of doubt I sat

Rain fell and puddles of sorrow collected in the flat

Painful tears rolled down my face

I was ready to leave, what a waste

I looked to the East, for something caught my sight

Took a step forward, and started my hike

Through the forest of redemption I made my descent

A transition to hope, my mind underwent

At the edge of the forest there laid my vision

A sign from above, to just keep living

I crossed a calm stream of excited smiles

There will be more hills to climb, some may be miles

But for now I no longer feel that of worthless

I just lay in the sun in the meadow of purpose.
