    The Reach

    Laying alone in the darkness... Frozen... Floating... Leaving behind all I've known and all I've held to be true... The bitterness sucks away at my last breath bidding me say farewell.

    Conscious over unconscious I see my own face... Nothing but a spark... Fading before my eyes... in the dark. Pulling... Tearing away at the shroud that covers and ties me to myself...
    I float on into nothing... drifting... becoming one in a peaceful nothing a void beyond ages the chasm opens and accepts me... Bidding farewell to the life I leave behind... Pushing on anew and through... To what might just lie ahead...

    Adrift in a sea of vivid imagination; actually, not such a bad place to be. Some people have too little, some, too much. I'd rather be in the latter group.

    Thank you... it was nothing more than a gathering of thoughts one night but everyone I let read it seemed to like it so I figured what the heck I'll see what more people think.. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
