The Lost Maze

-

When you were taken, my soul began to fade.

Knowing I'd be without you now hurt like a blade.

How did this come about?

When did the memories escape?

You left me behind in a fog of doom.

I'll be in the same gloom that I call my room.

Head below the surface, the pain began to grow.

Let go, they say...

But that's because they didn't know.

A world without you how do I continue.
Pieces of my heart broke away.
Creating something new, a warrior way.
I thought I'd never recover...
But here I am 6 years later thinking of you...
Wishing there was more time.
Take me back to my precious one.
Let me hold you once more.
This time I will not fade.
This time I will stand proud and tall.
Knowing that this time I survived it all.
Sleep in peace now my beloved one.
Until we meet again I hold you in my heart.
My son, I will never forget.
A mother's love never quits.

Love's Mercy Bride

-
Time made my soul its unwilling ghost.  At love's mercy I sat alone.  Waiting, praying, hoping he'll return home.  Darkness cast over its veil of pain. A channel of numbness calls me. In the void I learn to breathe again. I lost my heart the day you left. I felt your presence leave me. My love I'm lost, please find me. Hopelessness and spite seek to bind me. Alone in the shallows of disparity. How I long for peace and clarity. For nothing I lost you. I am empty and fading. Here I stay waiting patiently. In your memory I live on. All I knew is gone. Now I must be strong. Building up the walls you took down. Alongside my enemies I've become the clown. I realize now, I can never fall. I will rise above and rebuild with pride. Alone again, love's mercy bride. To the rules I am tied. Removing my veil, I will not hide. Foolish girl riding love's tide. Drowning in love flood and the memory. Unable to break free from the past. Swallowing the reality, I can't be with...

Rise

-
The weary scolded me as I fought in darkness. The broken watched and laughed as I shifted the fog. The lost watched from behind their mask to see if my endurance would last. All the same they chased me. Wanting another member for the tribe misery. With each stride and swing I gained back my power. Refusing to allow the past to shower me with rage and guilt. Out from the fog, released from darkness. Here I stand kissed by the sun's glow. A victory for growth. Once more I look back and wave to the weary, broken, and lost. I keep hope alive for those I left behind me. In the sun's warmth I finally see. Ah, this is Woman. Yes, this is Me.

The Winter Woods

-
It started with eerie cracks and breaks in branches, followed by murmurs of unknown creatures in the distance. The moonlight mocked my pounding heart with glimmers of light. I was trapped playing flashlight tag with the shadows.  As I moved forward, my imagination started to get the best of me. Under my feet, the branch crackled and crunched,  adding to the tension in my mind.  Anxiety streamed down my face in beads of sweat. I lost focus while swimming through my thoughts. A cold wet drop shocked me to consciousness... 'What was that? ... just the wind' I tell myself to calm my nerves. The deeper I tracked the further in my soul my stomach went. Now quivering in the bone-chilling winter... ...To be continued
