The Poet's in my Life

Walking past the light
Shadows inhibit me
Rays of influence
Marked my territory
Time provided the 
Destination 
Called Life.
First love
True love 
Friends of jubilation 
Friends of sorrow 
And
scarce friends 
Of perseverance 
Are the silhouettes 
That breathed
Existence
Into this floating soul.
The journey is long
The pathway becomes narrower 
While the mind that once was closed minded
Has blossomed into a flower of diversity
Creating a sense of forgiveness 
And love towards humanity
