Thinking of you.

A gift to a friend a while back - I thought I'd share this with you (please forgive me friend  ). For so many of you are who are getting hit so hard right now, and those of you who are not, those who bear it with you and try to be there for you.
With all my best - Peppermint 
Fear
so many days beyond despair
miseried nights of no repair
stumble
through your head
down to your heart
sufficient pain
the awful dread
in darkness
though blinds the light
the urgency of fear
drives the mind
as shards of glass
begin to pierce
the often wounded tenement
the temple of the faith
converts to fire
in agony
there's no retreat
the havens false and desperate
sorrowful the face
that fills the eye
and on the chase
I hear the snarl
the skulking rabid animal
with sharpened torches
leading to attack
the dance begins
the spirit's fight
against the weapons
weak
terror speeds on
towards dwindling time
and idly stands
another innocent wretch
unforgiven the sight
scorched
singed
burned
by the fiery struggle
knowing no assist
no harbor offers
but time -
futility of effort
weakens the will
to draw again
to reserve against
to rally days on end
to remain a stoic font of
stone and love
thus fate was served so bitterly
without a silver lining
encroaching on the dream
still sugarsweet
yet strikes the clock
to chase the beast
the enemy that feeds,
clinging,
slowly waning,
tired and sluggish
championed yet
the faith is true
the fortitude for battle
rises high
And mightier
once more
the spirit soars
the spirit reigns
becoming once again
most beloved creature
gentle
filled with light
________________
Keep looking for that light at the end of the tunnel...everytime. Peace.

That was really beautiful, Pepper.
This is true after any physical and personal battles one wages:
"championed yet
the faith is true
the fortitude for battle
rises high
And mightier
once more
the spirit soars
the spirit reigns
becoming once again
most beloved creature
gentle
filled with light "
... so remember that's to come when you're feeling temporarily that life's dark and bleak!
