THE DARKNESS

Dark as the darkest night is bright my mind and body has become, and even though the darkness continues to fill my lungs I continue to breath deep hoping to get my last breath in before the darkness consumes me.
Reaching out for something to grab onto, I continue to struggle to stay breathing for just a moment longer, while the darkness creeps over me unstoppable, unrelenting.
Just as my head is about to be completely covered who is this? a hand? And why? have they come to save me or condemn me?
As this new hope arises I feel them grabbing on to my reaching hand and for a second of hope, warm embrace, and a new found love they let go and I'm no longer able to hold on and for what was is no more only darkness.

i really like this poem. i think in live we all struggel with some kind of "darkness" and the big question is then, do we have enough people around us, that would help us out and i think its sad but true, today there arent many people out there anymo

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
