Desperately holding on to life; yet
deliriously desirous to welcome Him.
Death, He comes in my nightmares,
daunting with His double rope noose.
Dampened seem life without love,
dragging on, just breathing each day.
Dead I feel, but tell me; is this life?
deliriously desirous to welcome Him.
Death, He comes in my nightmares,
daunting with His double rope noose.
Dampened seem life without love,
dragging on, just breathing each day.
Dead I feel, but tell me; is this life?

| November PAD Challenge Day 14. #novpad14 |
The month of November sees the Poem-a-Day (PAD) challenge, hosted by Robert Lee Brewer at Poetic Asides. Day 14 theme is to write a deadly poem. I wrote on being dead when alive. It’s in the Pleiades form. Thanks Robert for the inspiration.

Poetry & writing to me are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
Interesting read 🙂
