reach out

During my visit to the vault the other day, I came across this piece. I cannot remember writing it, however, I do remember the moment in time in which it was written. It was a very dark moment and my ‘lighter self’ was trying to convince my ‘darker self to stay away from the black hole.
there may come a time
when sadness appears ˜
the pain,
the agony,
the tears.
when your world will seem
to be falling apart
and
overrun with fear.
∞
your frustrations will hound you,
anxieties paralyze you
and
tears will flood your eyes.
self-doubt & worry
will eat you up;
chiseling away at your pride.
∞
as time slips away,
exhaustion will ensue
and weakness will weigh you down ˜
anything beautiful along your path
will be looked upon with a frown.
∞
you will still have those moments
where the world will look bright ˜
though fast & fleeting it may seem.
you will fall in a hole
where things are twisted & tangled
so tight
you are unable to breathe.
∞
how you decide
to get out of this place
will depend on your strength & resolve.
you may stay where you are
drowning yourself
or
reach out…

Very beautifully written, I thought this was a perfect one with the recent tragedy, too. Many times, all it takes is to find someone to hold us and listen to us. Reaching out is a wonderful way to express, ‘I can be your lifeline.’
