Poetry: Dark Night of the Soul [Reprised]
June 21, 2008Dark Night of the Soul [Reprised]
There are times I stand -
I walk alone…
When helpless I turn
around and around.
You will be there
to help and hold.
Ironic… that…
When I am humbled most,
Your strength in me
will heal me whole.
It is revealed
the times I stood…
I had not stood alone.

I wrote this during a really dark time in my life when I seemed to have become a failure (in my eyes). But looking back on that time, I realized that I had learned so many important lessons. I hope I never forget those things… and this poem is yet another reminder.
