Epiphany

It's never really known
What's had until it's gone,
Yet well perceived in lesson
What's wrong is what is taught.

Perhaps a gain is ruined
Or a love that seemed to fade
Bears depressing moods
While I bow my head in shame.

Elsewhere in the obstinate
Something burrows deep and dark
A meditative journey
Serves to light a spark.

When did I ever purchase
What's thought is mine to keep?
What ever made me trust
An acceptance in defeat?

The pain is never mortal
A lesson's never cheap
What's paid in full by teardrops
Deceived me from victory.

The course for me is clear
As I seek an inner light
Treading through the crystal
That snuffs my outward night.

Breeze procuring whispers
Call for me to yield
Understanding is the key
For me again to feel.

Imparting with this wisdom
Established is my cause
Embellished by a truth
As I stand aloof in awe.

I close my eyes
In restful sleep
What ached my heart
Now turns to flee
Angels of mercy
Comfort and keep
Each heart that's bound
And found to weep.

When did I ever purchase

An acceptance in defeat?
