Description
I wander through the woods of my lifeAnd I am suddenly afraid
When once I was content to look at the light shining through leaves.
I ask everyone and no one where I am,
Receiving no clear answer.
In growing panic, I crash through the brush, leaving a trail of blood.
I ask in panic why the woods are dark,
Remembering calmer times,
When I could rest under the trees in peace, unaware of any danger.
It is as if a storm appeared without notice,
plunging my life into chaos.
I am suddenly blinded my darkness, thorns, lightening, rain, and fear...
Where do I turn? What has happened to me?
I cry into the dark for help,
And cover my face, terrified of the answer, and terrified of no answer.
The storm starts to pass by, the woods lighten...
Yet I am afraid, and hide still,
For a part of my soul flew away to the winds when the storm alighted
Shaking and afraid, I stumble through the woods
Searching for myself,
And I will not give up, though I may fall and the storm may return...
I will find what has been lost to the wind.
I will find courage in fear,
And I will find that secret strength that is hidden in my weakness.
