Five Minute Friday- Become

“To Become”

Have I become a wretched soul

Emotions held in grips untold.

For pain has faltered

And despair discreet,

Of darkened hearts in tragedy.

And while no tears escape,

I shutter in fear of Satan’s fate,

Of lost souls

in temporary hold.

There’s jealousy of addictions grasp,

That holds a hand I held last.

And laughs in evil mockery,

Taking the love once meant for me.

So tears evade

And smiles fade,

But hope still clings to God.

I’ve become a shadowed foe

Overcome by addictions hold,

But forever in the mist

And in the very midst

Alone, is God.

I'm someone who has always had a deep passion for literature and writing. From a young age, I've been captivated by the power of words and the way they can transport us to different worlds, open our minds to new ideas, and connect us with people and experiences that are distant from our own. Whether it's immersing myself in a classic novel, jotting down my thoughts in a journal, or crafting my own creative stories, writing and literature have always been an essential part of my life. I'm excited to continue exploring this rich and rewarding field, and to share my thoughts and insights with others who share my love for all things literary.
