Brace For Impact

The world on his shoulders, He trudges along, Standing amid the crashing sea, He pushes on, In gloom’s embrace, He pulls away, He believes lost time can be redeemed, He has seen a path none around can see, He walks on grace’s path, They don’t bear the periscope, They can't see through the veil, They can’t see him inside out, Courage props and supports, Hope has not left him in the lurch, He walks every mile in unflinching determination, Brighter days are in his view. June 23, 2022, Brace for Impact, This or That, Vol 12 Poetry Contest, Edward Ibeh.
