My First Poem

All of you here in the Creative Corner have inspired me to start writing some poetry. So here it is -

The emptiness
seeps deep
into my soul.
I need to feel
some control.

The darkness
is an ever
present reminder
of a longing
for something
more.

I want
something that's real
something I can
hold onto.

So please help
me find what I need
what I need
to find
some peace

Faith, faith is what
I need, what I
need to pull
me through


Any advice would be welcome since I'm new to this so I'm open to any suggestions, especially with form. If anyone knows of a book that would give me some tips, let me know, you can pm me. Thanks, Sheila.
