Impending Freedom


Waves of peace roll over
The end of pain in sight
An entrance to a new world
Freedom from this fight
A sea of life before me
An ocean of hate behind
At tunnels end I see my light
I've searched but now I find

    This creates for me an image of waves washing you clean of pain and taking all that has gone before back to the deep. A worthy struggle.

    I love the hope in this, especially when it's coming after so much obvious pain. It makes it that much more powerful.

    the first line holds a wonderful feeling

    your poem is full hope, new choices, and accomplishment.

    you project so much in so few words - my teacher would love this - less is more, not a word wasted
