Floating in the Abyss

A reflective poem
Without prejudice
Where does it take us
This journey of life?
When dark times seem endless
With worry and strife.
Fear becomes food.
Reality bleak.
As we drink from the poisonous
chalice of the weak.
Searching for solace
But opening more wounds.
That consume our being
With cancerous mounds.
Dragging our bodies
to fountains of hope.
But finding despair
wrapped in efforts to cope.
Surrendering to faith.
Succumbing to fear.
Opening our minds
to something more rare.
Relinquishing power
to whatever may be.
Just may be the answer.
We must wait and see…
