A THOUGHT AWAY

No matter how dark times may seem to appear
Or how desperate and tempted I am to fear
My spirit, it shall never be able to breach
Because solace is always within my reach
 
Misery and sorrow I effortlessly cast aside
Giving them no place where they can hide
For I draw strength letting my memory play
Because you are always just a thought away
 
Like pitching a coin into a wishing well
I think of you and feelings of hope swell
I am never alone with you there in my mind
Giving trust, faith and friendship in kind

Author's Note

I leave most punctuation to the reader that they can read the poem in their own meter, mood and motility. I thank you for taking the time to read my work.

Thank you, fighting temptation is a full-time job and fear is one of its best weapons, it wait's to get you alone to do its dirty work :~)

It's a wonderful way to stay positive Bear! Your words aptly describe your feelings for this person. In my opinion, I think it reads just great without any punctuation. It follows a stream of thought that goes much deeper than the end of the poem. :)
