[bodytext] => A young boy, can only hide in his dreams Hiding in his closet, to escape his mothers screams See, Daddy has an anger problem He’s half of a man, as he stands tall King of the house, watching his wife fall Flexing his cowardice, in this unjust fight The boy cries Shine your light A young couple, an anxious couple They watch as the line turns blue, now parents to be The fathers eyes fill a joyful tear His girlfriends become enraged with fear a week later, in complete discreetness, heart filled with weakness the mother’s at the abortion clinic The devil’s mimic When he hears the news he falls to his knees And prays to his angel, who will never breath Left with nothing but a child’s demise and a woman to despise… Shine your light A woman, with a disease, walks down the street She’s followed by stares…. w/ her dignity, god took her hair She cant get a job and can’t buy a friend It’s only so long before she meets her life’s end Laughs and smirks haunt her shadow as people make fun She goes home and sits with a gun Why wait she asks, with the barrel to her head Finger on the trigger she thinks she’s better off dead A heart to never mend…a lost will to fight Is it a life worth taking? Shine your light The preceding stanza’s example the inability to cope Yet to cope, is a necessity to pursue hope People overshadowed and overcame w/ reality Infidelity, violence, lies, all blind our path to pursue happiness Is it there? Are there answers at all? Is life one big ‘luck of the draw?’ It takes strong will to live day by day One must look at the world through optimistic eyes Remember, After the night, a bright suns to rise One good deed is all it takes To rid a part of the world of its haunting mistakes With your head held high, walk into the night Light up the darkness And shine your light There will always be grief if everyone concedes A world of Happiness is a foundation of seeds Shine your light… and they will grow [comments] => 3 [counter] => 145 [topic] => 19 [informant] => CMark86 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => InspirationalPoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
