About This Poem

The Force

When the blackest nightmares were realized
and bitter truth pierced brittle armor
When candles of last hope flickered and faded
and darkness closed on the edge of vision
When despair careened towards insanity
and aching fists and fingers began to slip
When the abyss called, a mighty hand reached
and lifted me silent to higher ground

    This is so very true Tim! I really enjoyed the implications within this write! I feel I've been here at the edge of the abyss before, and I certainly was lifted by the Mighty Hand! What a marvelous poem, I loved it! Great Work!!
