Calling of Valedictions
Standing within the silence
of perils doom…I heard someone knocking
on the gated chisel of my heart’s door.
Like an echo of fear
permeating into the distant memories of abandon,
I looked outside
to peer into the distrusting foyer of stepping stones.
Nothing stood in the silent passageway
of presence;
nothing but emptiness
knocking on the perseverance
of my heart’s recessing threshold.
Like a shadow of wind
captured inside the glimpse of tomorrow
I needed to answer the calling of valedictions…
Within all confusion I became like a beggar of hope,
thinking silently
into the chambers of my soul,
I peered outside…
Perhaps the promise of love’s trust has arrived…

Very nice. This feels like an important moment of inward thought and emotion. From beginning to end, a journey of the spirit. Well done.
