Love and Despair

Some days are dark and clouded,
Stars fear to shine and the moon is shrouded.
My joy has gone I force out a smile,
Within the storms of life, I wait a little while.
Some days, even moments, I'm filled with despair,
The sadness of the hour makes it harder to bear.
Everywhere I turn, I see no way out,
I've torn apart with despair or doubt.
These things have destroyed my hope,
I can't find a way to cope.
My inner struggle between hope and despair,
Becoming more though hard to bear.
I cry and shed my tears,
As panic bells ring in my ears.
She found me sitting all alone,
Wondering if anything was wrong.
A fake smile is all I could do,
While contemplating an 'I Love You'.
Before I could turn to speak,
She wiped a tear from my cheek.
With her gentle fingertips,
She hushed my quivering lips.
Deep into my eyes, she stared,
Told me how much she cared.
Whenever we are together,
Wishing the moment would last forever.
You give me a smile when it seems impossible,
I hear your voice saying anything is possible.
Showed me light in life that I'd never seen before,
Something that my heart and soul had been longing for.
The way you sheltered my soul from the rain,
As you cleared away the storm ridding my pain.
You heal the beating of my broken heart,
Painting a smile on my face like a piece of art.
Releasing all the emotions trapped inside,
All my feeling that I'd always try to hide.
Sweet music played as I looked into your eyes,
I could see the man who was hidden in disguise.
The Savior who had fallen from heaven above,
Is now the angel who helped me believe in love.

After all the broken hearts, and lessons learned, memories burned, can we again open our heats and risks love's deceit?
