PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I was at the bottom today,
I thought I found a way up.
I reached,
Climbed,
Struggled,
Tripped and fell.
The top was so close,
I could almost reach it.
Almost.
La fin approche.
I reach even further
Fingers outstretched,
Arm straining.
I reach for the roots, the dirt and worms.
Some crumbles away,
Back down into the abyss.
I no longer see the bottom
Hope bubbles up within me.
I can see through to the other side,
Bright
Lush
Happy
I make my way up
Up,
Further.
I make my way through the light.
I lay down and enjoy
Enjoy the light
Enjoy the lush grass
Enjoy the happiness.
I close my eyes
I blink
I am at the bottom again.
I think I found a way up.
