Beyond

Beyond

Beyond the night that covers me,
black as the unfathomable abyss,
I thank the gods that may exist
for my unconquerable soul.

In the chance claws of circumstances
I have not moaned or cried.
Subjected to the blows of chance
my head bleeds, but it's upright.

Beyond this place of anger and crying
lies but the horror of the shadow,
and still the threat of the years
finds me and find me without fear.

No matter how narrow the door is,
how loaded with punishments the sentence,
I am the owner of my destiny,
I am the captain of my soul.

Lovely lines Silvy. Loved this.
“No matter how narrow the door is,
