I’ve seen dark, dreary places
Where souls wither like a flower
That has seen no sign of sunshine
Nor nourishment of a shower
I have left my heart out in a storm
To be chilled by a killing frost
No impassioned kisses to warm it
In mortal tears I paid the cost
I have traveled miles of skyways
Seeking, searching for a truth
Squandered life and often liberty
So much of my misbegotten youth
Have danced with Satan’s minions’
Disguised in the robes of desire
Fell too my knees openly repenting
And so was baptized in the fire
Yet I fear all of this was pointless
Just filler in the mists of time
Until the day you brought me light
When you said that you’d be mine…

Yes! I can completely relate to how "real" love can put everything into perspective, balance, and alignment. Fortunate are those who find it. Thank you, Fee. Love and peace to you,

I have noticed that the last two 4-line stanzas do not have a break between them. There is also a typo in the first line of your poem.
"I’ve have seen dark, dreary places" - If you say 'I've' you do not need 'have' after.

And the line "just filler in the mists of time" strikes such a chord!
So much of what we do is just that. Your poem is a powerful declaration of your love and also of your humility and wisdom.
