Image for the poem sorrow

sorrow's gates

           
gentle sighs escape my lips            
where they whisper            
my life's in peril            
           
heard by the gods            
who understand these delicate murmurs            
     
they send their love          
laced on the wings of doves            
an answer given            
           
i've crucified myself enough            
my penance received            
           
within sorrow's gates            
I am welcomed            
tenderly cleansed head to toe         
free from the heaviness of being            
           
an all encompassing realm         
it washes over my spirit            
& brings emotions            
I thought long since dead            
           
my life in fates hand            
I walk through the forest of enlightenment            
with many paths to tread         
I am ushered towards the high one            
           
a new life is then born            
of the journey
