I gaze out of the window <br />Yet I do not see anything. <br />My eyes are flooded with <br />Bitter tears of sorrow. <br /> <br />Time is said to be a healer <br />But it heaped coals on my head. <br />Fate buried me under <br />The dead leaves of trials. <br /> <br />Death stared me in my face. <br />It came closer to me than ever <br />I was muted by everything around. <br />No reply came to my lips. <br /> <br />I seek and ponder <br />Yet I am left answerless <br />Here I am, in this road <br />I stood years ago <br /> <br />But now I have the confidence <br />That I’ll pass through this. <br />I’ll triumph with hope <br />Burning in the deepest part <br />Of my very heart <br /> <br />Never will I turn back to <br />The path I once trailed <br />I live with hope in my heart <br />And strength in my veins. <br /> <br />God, help me reach that destiny <br />You have for me <br />Let peace be my guide along <br />This path I am born to trail.<br /><br />Emily Angel<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/destiny-205/
