The Ladder Called Life
\ \
A cry within
\ \
A broken spirit
\ \
A sigh stifling
\ \
A shaken grit
\ \
A pressing pain
\ \
A tear that froze
\ \
A memory train
\ \
A life of woes
\ \
A fragile past
\ \
A bleeding heart
\ \
A smile lost
\ \
A fleeting thought
\ \
A blank page
\ \
A pen in hand
\ \
A camouflage
\ \
In a poet's land
\ \
