Momentary Joy Poem by Trevor Schulte

This joy that resides,
down to my very bones,
is crying out and replacing
all the painful moans.
All the pain is gone,
each worry has faded.
These memories that were unfit,
have become jaded.
My wounded heart,
which had hit the very edge,
was purified,
as it teetered life's ledge.
The anguish that had been haunting,
my mind's narrow thoughts.
have finally thrown in the towel
and become overwrought.
This joy that brings my smile,
which I haven't felt in awhile,
gives me the reassurance,
that I have finally beaten my trial.
The relief it gives,
rests my innermost soul,
giving a chance for my spirit and personality,
to take a much needed stroll.
The freedom that my mind has
to be completely inventive,
have brought back my dreams,
giving my hopes its sought incentives.
If only I could forever,
feel this sensation.
Being swept away
by the on-going good vibration.
This feeling may not last till tomorrow,
but this pleasure I hope to borrow,
when my joyfulness
goes back to life's yielded sorrow.
