I sense snapping jaws of weighted darkness trying, relentlessly, to devour the essence of my fatigued soul. Its wretched arms, squeeze, tightly, around my weakened body, longing to grasp the last breath I hold. I twist and try to run, but fall deeper into its greedy pits and sink into the belly of its entrapment. Its hands are cold, thieving. Desiring to possess the whole of who I am. Craving all I have ever been. It scratches and claws, trying to pull me down to where it can steal my precious life. I'm almost smothering. I can't recall how to turn the key which will set my soul free. I struggle within. I find that little part of me which loosens this vise. I push against its will and break through the darkness before me and embrace the glorious light waiting for me on the other side. Keep faith, hold your dreams in your palm of your hand as you reach for your goals! |
