Fading away–however...

I can feel how I'm once again fading in the dark,

on this already familiar journey alone I embark;

used to be well, but it's inevitably coming for my being,

only this time I know I ought to stop fleeing.

Crying, yelling, slowly embracing the dark,

while keeping a joyful face whenever I go out,

and hear crows that sing despairs with strife,

as I'm fighting not to bury my heart miles away from life.

Too many 'whys', a too heavy feeling of fright–

my existence is now about crying at night.

But wait–something's now changed!

Words of warmth and wisdom shouting in mind

from a soul in which I'm glad I decided to confide.

Hearing now a melody so sweet–it's my purpose, loud and clear,

I suddenly acknowledge the light I'm meant to be in;

fearless, determined, living in the present,

even though at times it can be unpleasant.

It is only the harsh beginning of a beautiful path,

thus, I shall embrace myself with patience and a kind heart.
