A long road….a lambent end

Meandering in the dark, a faceless soul…
No end..no purpose….melancholy the only goal…

A diminished halo…a hollow aura…the absent zeal….
Chained by fate…destroyed by time….a venomous deal…

A simple wish… a simple man….a simple dream…
To be loved…to be cherished…to flow with the stream…

Denied…slaughtered…the little wish….the only desire…
Shredded….neglected….his soul lay…a sacrificial lamb put on fire…

The lord demanded something else…something more…
More sweat…more blood…even more gore…

But fate had pity on the shattered being…
Had mercy on the soul….thought for once about his wellbeing…

Returning his joy…blessing him for once…loving him…
Along came an angel…making his life lambent from a grey dim…

Giving him the attention he deserved…giving him the love…
Safeguarding him from the push…from the ominous shove…

But still a task remains…work needs to be done…
Even after the entire wait…the checklist remains till the battle is won…

He needs to work towards gaining the most prized thing…trust…
To be able to shine his life…to be able to wipe the dust…

To live once again…to reignite his halo…to witness pleasure pure…
Before he can color his own…he must paint the angel’s life azure…

Yes, a dream remains…livened again…
Yet, the nightmare watches…the acropolis awaits to deliver pain..

The war is not over…life is yet not fine….
The Sun has dawned…awaited is it’s shine!
