Lisa Stewart Poems

In the throes of a tempest, unseen but felt,
A soul battles shadows, where despair is dealt.
Each breath a skirmish, invisible and raw,
Against the relentless pull of addiction's claw.
...

In the quiet corners where laughter once played,
Echoes now linger, in the light that has strayed.
Ghosts of smiles, memories worn thin, Marking the absence, of what might have been.
...

In the depths of a battle, internally waged,
Lies a soul tethered by troubles, engaged.
Caught in a tempest of doubt and despair,
Searching for breath in a suffocating air.
...

In the gentle folds of the evening's embrace,
Rests a kind soul, with a tranquil face.
A spirit tender, a whisper light,
Casting warmth into the cold of night.
...
