As light attempts to rise and give sight
Darkness intercepts deceiving hope with buried guilt
Agony claws what’s vulnerable
Commencing a cycle of self-blame and depression
The purpose to live starts withering
Previous accomplishments become non-existent
It’s a battle between head and heart
Perseverance and faith will survive the grinding test
As life changes occur, the fears that arise cause my path to take a dark detour. Fear clouds my hope and make me face my demons. As my life transforms, it becomes a battle between mind and heart whispering for me to persevere with faith to survive and find my promised new light. When I’m willful to listen to my heart and follow my values, a rainbow shines bright to help me see the treasure I earned.

Your poem points us back to basics which keep us grounded. The basics will almost always keep us on the right track. Well done.
