I search the oceans of time, <br />talking in verses of rhyme. <br />Sifting through sands of truths and uncertainties. <br />Mapping out a course in which I shall travel. <br /> <br />No stone going unturned, <br />mistakes of the past, they no longer burn. <br />Those were lessons, that I had to learn. <br />My nerves are no longer unraveled. <br /> <br />A calm, soothing tranquility, is <br />left behind from yesterdays tide. <br />I no longer feel as if my soul, shriveled up and died. <br />Hurt and despair, these eyes have no longer cried, <br />Feelings of hope and belief, I no longer <br />have a need to hide. <br /> <br />My soul is newly reborn, <br />as I think of those that still scorn. <br />They will never heal, <br />forever, will they be forlorn. <br />My heart beats rapidly <br />my life, the hands of time did not steal. <br /> <br />My courage is replenished. <br />It comes from deep inside me, it <br />was there all along <br />It just needed a gentle hand to guide me. <br /> <br />The sound of the waves, hissing forth. <br />I close my eyes and think of you, knowing <br />that you are not very far. <br /> <br />Soon your own quest for answers will close <br />the distance between us. <br />And you, still my soul warrior... will embrace <br />me once again.<br /><br />Kristin Nicole RothDavis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-vision-of-a-remarkable-quest/
