turning towards the forlorn face of fear

No time to
turn back
and bashfully
burn away
from the
fumes of fear .
Thinking
no one is
near to wipe
away each
and every
timidly
tender tear .
However
in this life
there still
lonesomely
lies a chance .
Always lurking
within the
dismally
dying depths
of darkness .
Wistfully waiting
to spark a
lone luscious light
of half hummed hope.
hanging
onto a
reluctant royal
reverie
that like a ravine
ruffled rosebud
blissfully blooms
out an immense
inner beauty .

A good piece, that I was tempted to try and correct.
However, I saw the use of the [ly] in numerous words
and then realized that it was intentional.
It took me a bit and then I felt foolish about
what I think is a very good device. Carry-on!
Good job, ~ Geez.

Hello, Edward,
You are certainly the "giver of hope." The poem builds up bold strength and courage, yet ends with such gentleness and peace. Gratitude and extreme grace.
Thank you,

Well I was inspired to write this when I saw the scene from a friend for the end of the world.
Most of us are afraid of the unknown or too afraid to take a chance . But we forget that we have only one life to live and it’s light could be blown out in an instant without us even aware of it .
Then you realize at the very end of your life what truly matters most to you.
