Out Of The Shade

Out Of The Shade

When existence was nothing that I had aimed for,

When dilemmas and problems were all that I saw,

When circumstances had taken such a savage toll,

Your radiance settled me bringing calm to my soul !

.................................................

Life, once stark and bleak, became the playground.

Joy in living, once a mystery, was suddenly found !

You shared the fullest heart with a passionate kiss,

Letting me know what wonder there is to all of this !

................................................

You made sense of everything which I had queried,

Giving yourself so I realized love was all I needed !

You provided answers to all those questions raised.

As soon as love took hold, I stepped from the shade !

................................................

Never shall I return to stifling greyness of twilight.

With you, I learnt what it is to win the hard fight !

Blessed is a future where sunshine is ever present.

This life is now one where dreams conquer torment !

Love and hope are blessings which easily combine to produce an intoxicating brew !!

Without love and hope where would we be ? 

Thank you for reading my poems and showing such support of them. You realize the motivation behind their conception and relate to them, which fills my heart with happiness.

Love. Hugs. xx
