"Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one."


Thud, Thud, Thud.
My eerie footfalls,
echo through the empty halls.
My heart palpitates with anticipation
Expecting to see someone, anyone, again
As I turn the endless corners.
Once friends, now foreigners,
My heart jumps, "There they are!"
They are close, yet they are far.
Ghostly shadows from my transient past,
Of the friends I thought would forever last.
Silly me, Silly I
I say "Hello," and they hollowly reply,
"Goodbye."

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.
