Cocoon of Shadows
#1 of Personal Poetry
This was written during a darker time in my life. Though after writing this and shedding a few tears, i felt a lot better.
In the shadows,
He sees his fate.
The darkness has set in,
He feels it's too late.
The light he once knew,
Unable to find him.
His light is fading,
Almost to dim.
As he sits alone in his room,
His mind stirs with doubt.
Afraid she won't make it,
In time to pull him out.
Still he holds on,
To the only thing he knows.
His love for his wife,
And the love she shows.
Numb and caged,
Like an unbreakable cacoon.
He waits for her return,
Hoping it's soon.
