Letter To the Void

I stand here again At the edge of this step And it feels like I am balancing on the edge Without any sight to know if the next step exists. I tire of this It feels like a fog has settled And I’ve become cold and numb It takes so much strength to resist. I don’t have foresight This path in front of me is invisible And the last step made me tumble I’ve only begun to stand back up. I can’t hear others I know there exist those that offer support But I can’t make them out over the noise I need the noise in my own mind to quiet first. I don’t trust myself Without sight or sounds to have knowledge of that next step I’ve become frozen with fear So how can I possibly move forward? I can feel him I am no longer on this path alone Even at moments like this, I can feel his love And that reminder gives me the courage to step forward
