Nosedive

I have crashed! Oh, God, alas!
A nosedive straight into the dirt-
To the center of the Earth,
But the High was worth the hurt...
Though my Hopes were deeply dashed,
Though my Dreams unduly smashed,
My Life before my eyes has flashed-
No time to change, to quell- avert!
(And no more strength left to exert)

Chan my friend This is a poem that can be relatable to a lot of readers. Sometimes we all feel like we can't take it and anymore and feel weak and alone Nice job Hugs Thanks for the honest and nice comment on my Deadly Drinking poem.

I'm glad you think it's relatable, for I don't think I write many things which are relatable to the casual or average reader, so to hear you say that makes me happy; thank you, Sweet Pea <3
