The brightness ahead!!!

Alas! The once appealing has become appalling
The celebrated has become the rejected
Friends that dined have become those that denied
A path once full of merry has become a memory of pains
The living left for the non living to be my companion
My lamentations echoed back my solitude
Those I trusted in freely gave their trust to another

Life's journey began solely and would end same
But through it, I longed for the comfort of those I loved
The equilibrium of life is unjust, fairness was a fairytale to wish
Darkness lurked the walls around me, light seemed a mirage
My steps were forward, never to be drowned in the waters of regrets
The claws of pain eagerly awaits my defeat, a laughter to scorn pleasantly prepared
Luminescence beckoned to me, hope gave wings to my feet for flight

That which lay ahead was enough to drown the troubles of the past
A recompense for the many sorrows that befell me
Darkness faded into oblivion as my hands grasped illumination
Loneliness and grief reluctantly withdrew their grip of my loins
Nay, not even a farewell would I bid my past days of sorrow
A bold leap to liberty, a hope revived, a lesson well learnt
Today's the gift of hope for tomorrow's brightness

I'm just starting to discover how amazingly talented you are. First of, your stories are impeccable and now your poetry even more heartfelt.
I new the theme of this poem from the first few lines. Loneliness. Like a void in the heart. That's a theme that many can talk about for hours on end. I !luv this poem. Great job @jjmusa2004
