Untitled Poem by Marissa Hernandez

im all alone completely confused
i dont belong in this world
im stumbling around in the dark
trying soo hard to find a light

i see the light but it's impossible to reach
it seems as though the closer i get the farther it becomes

will i ever reach it? ?
will i ever reach my destiny?
maybe im just destined to be stuck in the dark forever

no happiness or life just complete darkness
surrounded by the evil that lurks about
waiting for me to give up so it can attack

i will not allow it to attack
i will do whatever it takes to reach that stubborn light

how i long to see clear paths
to feel the warmth of the bright sun bearing down upon my face
the journey is long and hard
the evil tries to stop me, to weaken me
i stay strong and keep going

i will reach the light
telling myself to keep going
i've reached the light and it feels amazing

hot tears stream down my face as i admire the beautiful sight before me

i sink to my knees teary-eyed and look up to the shy and say:
'i've done it'

i am powerful and proud that i made it.
I MADE IT ALONE!
