PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Usurped from

            my serene

              bubble

I am. . . . . .I am. . . . .I am. . . .

             thrust into

             the pitfall

             of pestilence

the defeatism         a frustration

     & fear

            of failure

        tranquility

                fallen

           over cliffs

              onto jagged rocks

             swept away

                in the

                     salt water

               of the ocean

Reason—rationale                   disappears

             into

       solitude

          I survive

            the fall

    a few fractured bones

            internal bleeding

                        but I still rise

          attempt

             to claim victory

but it is not so easy

              trudging thru

                         eternity

                 every evening

                 every afternoon

rise to darkness

set to light

rise to darkness

set to light
