Poem

Only I Decide My Fate 

By Kathryn Collins and Terry O'Leary

At times when I am dark and deep 
joy but flickering dim, 
I upon the portal keep 
stilled like phantom limb. 

Braced by winter's welkin wind, 
distant clouds unfold, 
where once the roar of laughter dinned 
I taste the burning cold. 

Stood in life's predicament 
immobile on the sill, 
I wait for grand encouragement, 
to warm this awful chill. 

Stranded in the winter bleak, 
with breezes bitter blown 
slicing like the sleet oblique 
I find myself alone 

If frozen at the brink I stand, 
persist in stagnant stall, 
my feet will melt to silken sand. 
gone my soul, my all.


Thanks to Kathy for her support and inspiration
