A twist of fate

The light shines through

Wondering in this unfamiliar land

I scan my surroundings

Vibrant with color and life

Thoughts and hopes once so far

Now within my reach

These moments forever suspended in time

A freeze frame image of all I’ve ever wanted

No longer held by doubt

I walk this land once only a child’s dream

No longer breathless in a sea of stress

I conquer the trials set before

The world’s weight lifted from Atlas’s shoulders

I tread with ease

The flowing water of uncertainty now crystal clear in my mind’s eye

This circulating warmth one blocked by dismays icy grip

The new days light glowing brighter with each routines cycle

Eyes focused on the horizon ahead

Alone I do not trek

Side by side with others we travel

A feeling of inner harmony sounds

Each providing their own tone and rhythm

Underscored by this place

Combined into a rich melody

These elements resonate echoing from wall to wall

Spreading like a crimson wildfire

Others are called to join in on the journey

All leaving gloom behind, as the radiance fills in
This poem can have a couple meanings but my intention was to right a poem about finally finding happiness.
