OTHER SIDE (a poem)
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, desiring to gasp my last breath from me. I twist and try to run but fall deeper into its greedy pits and further sink into the belly of its entrapment. Its hands are cold and thieving. It longs to possesss the whole of who I am. It craves all I have ever been. It scratches and claws, tying to pull me under where it can steal my precious life. I'm almost smothering. I strain to recall how to turn the key that will set my soul free. I struggle within to find some part of me which will loosen this vise encasing me. I push against its will and might and break through the darkness before me and embrace the glorious light waitng on the other side. ©2003 L.A.

Another great poem, Honey. The words you use clearly speak to what you were feeling and I enjoyed reading it because I understood exactly what you were writing about.
