Ordained by bitter hate
The image reflected in the mirror
Was in a tedious and desperate state

I forever seeked true guidance
On deaf ears my pleas fell
Then one momentous day came
When opulent hope arose from my realms of hell

You entered my forsaken life
Put out the flames within my hell
Freed me from irated pain
Helped me break out of my shell

Your seeds of hope were sown
Deep amidst my ailing heart
I was like a new budding flower
Sprouting, making a fresh new start

You purified my once darkened heart
You washed stealth from my mind
The seeds of hope flourished
Suicidal thoughts at last are left behind

The tunes of an ill fated elegy
Now play, but cannot be heard
For with hope faith is delievered
The mournful elegy is lost for words.

Amidst An Ailing Heart...

The final poem posted... *sigh* The last one is great as was the others. Dark and depressing to hopeful and bright. This is part two of "My Heart's Forsaken Fate". It looks as if the person that would rid your fate has come. : ) This all sounds like you got revenge to your pain. I like that. It would be awesome to get revenge of pain. It's like you're now free. Well, I am so happy that I was able to read your poems. If ever you post more... I will have to read them. You are my favorite writer here. I just love your poems... they are written so well. Thanks for your great writes...

Melancholy is not fun at all:> Find the root from where it comes from, hopefully it will pass on, if it lags on, always check it out with a doctor:> Huggs from,

Yes Sue, this is a gorgeous write.
Who does not identify with the feelings and emotions expressed so beautifully.

But, philosophically and religiously there is a lot to say.
One experts that cares for souls believes and advocates going so deep into the dark night, - i.e. not fleeing suffering, but going consciously through it with remarkable unimagined consequences.
St.John of the Cross called it the ":Dark night of the Soul" and he loved it.

Great write Sue
Thanks for sharing
Blessings
Elizabeth

Very reflective, sort of melodic dance of words here, important to have this type of self awareness, physical and or emotional pain, our soul suffers, enjoyable read RL
