Shadows Of Solace Poem by Raging Minds

With a heart filled with grief
And a soul mourning ceaselessly,
With no one in this world
To share the burdens of my heavy mind,
With a woe-begone countenance
And tearful eyes,
I turn to the shadows in the dark
For comfort and solace.

To pour out my miseries
Of the past and the morrow,
To confess my guilt and delinquency
As I regret those past deeds,
To elucidate my helplessness
In this ruthless, rapacious world,
I turn to the shadows in the dark
Eagerly seeking a solution...and emancipation.

Silently they devour
My fatigue and exhaustion.
Sighing noiselessly
As they take away my weighty anxieties.
Slowly they creep
Into the bowels of blackness,
And come back with solutions
That render the day ahead bright.
