David William Breidenthal Poet Free verse

Holding Unto Me

Say you will 
protect me from 
the tidal waves of destruction
Say you will 
adore me, 
even if I open up the door of corruption
I’m drifting away 
into another black hole 
in my mind
I’m fading away; 
into the eerie night, 
I sway…
now, 
I’m growing blind…
Left behind, 
only to find 
your shadows, 
reflecting my own
Well, I have faith 
that God will be with me 
in the long run, 
for he’s my backbone
I am on my own, 
but not alone…
I answered His call 
when I heard my phone…
Blasting off in the middle of nightfall…
He encouraged me to stand tall…
Taking flight at last
Tragedy drags me down – alas!
