Knowing eyes stare back at me
Where have I been?
I think I found the road to nowhere
Endless crossroads and corners
Hands shaking, keep driving
Thunder clapped amid relentless rains
My frightened heart cried out
Heavens, please save me!
I know I’m close, so close
Steady feet, don’t fail me now
With a mind that is set and never drifts
I cross and pass this episode
To stand before you
Scared but smiling
Shaken but standing
Battered but not beaten.
...AND MY SOUL LOOKS BACK AND WONDERS...HOW I MADE IT OVER...AND KNOWS. A VERY WELL DONE INSPIRATIONAL WORK... THE IMAGERY IS FANTASTIC. THANKS FOR SHARING AND GOD BLESS. LOVE,

Wow! This is like a masterpiece! (and I don't say that lightly)
Every element is perfect- very emotionally moving narrative.
What we've all felt when temporarily lost~ then FOUND!
sweet relief from the episodes of our lives
Sheri, so very nice to have you back, and you come with this great poem--back through the trials of life you come, out of the house of darkness. You weave a poignant web of thought that truly reflects what it is to have come through with the grace of heaven behind you........Jerry

Great stuff. I believe you were right in what you said on my dark poem this morning that you had recently come from you own kind of dark woods. This illustrates that darkness only too well. I like your style.
Sheri this is a most emotional poetic expression
