 A Tightrope

 

There is a man

Near the edge of night.

He walks in between

Not feeling the light.

 

He is a good man

Anguish tears his heart.

Fighting for the why

Questioning life’s deny.

 

Balancing in between

He walks a tightrope.

Struggling on the edge

He questions hope.

 

Focus on the light

A promise of sunshine.

Extending my hand

One day at a time.
