The discouragement do not let go Every step on this journey feels unbearable The mountains rise - give me strength Saints and justice salvation and love Crawl for the truth settlement with sin a face - a facade My body hurts - but I do not care One of the weapons looked innocent But, price very high an inner struggle The heavy air must be blown away Empty gloomy thoughts - discouraged to fall A place to breathe my "reset" button 10/04/2021 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved Anacreontic Verse Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Silent One 1st place in the contest

Yes, sometimes we fall, only to gain more strength to get back up and face whatever we are going through. Wonderful message for the ones needing strength and encouragement. Congratulations.

Agony and despair hand in hand but the human spirit will withstand all adversities and emerge victoriously! Fine writing that reveals the inner struggle at moments of uncertainty! Hugs, my dearest friend, Anne-Lise! xxx

Sometimes we all need to set our reset button by doing whatever we need to do to rest from everyday life. I enjoyed reading your contest entry. Reads like a good contender to me ..Way to go. Sara

Introspective write Anne-Lise. You painted emotions wonderfully. I like the turn your poem takes towards the end.
