shadow of doubt

deep
within the forest
one finds
a place
so hidden
that
even
the angels
lose their way


darkened
by the overgrowth
the place
where one
can sulk
hours upon hours
in solitude

until

 

a sliver
of light
finds
it’s way
when the sun
reaches
it’s highest point

 

piercing
the darkness
breathing life
into the day

 

the dank
& dampness
disappears

 

the moss covered rocks
no longer
covered in fear

 

each plant
each tree
each being
sharing this space

………………………………….wait

each day
for the sun

 

for at last
that is when
the shadow of doubt
dissipates
