Breaking Away

Such a difficult task
when the tendrils of need
are so strong
their longing grip
grasps beyond one’s conscience
though gnawing guilt
attempts to sway
pulling, pulling, pulling
away
still I cling
wanting anything
I may gain
from hanging on
one more minute
one more second
for just one more...

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Hi Virginia, I have not seen you for so long. Not sure if I've been gone or you've been gone. Either way, nice to see you and hope all is well.

Hugs, Marti

You have a good "grasp" on this feeling I know all too well. Nicely written. ~K~
