IN A DARK PLACE

Written for Stormy Lady's Show Me Your Poetry and Win contest

IN A DARK PLACE

She stood there by the river,
defiant in her stance,
watching the water swirling;
giving her one last chance.

Uncertain of her destiny and
not knowing which way to turn,
she could not defuse the anger
but, oh, the gates of Hell can burn!

As if drowning in her sorrow
the anger disappeared and then,
she turned and walked back home
to make things right again.

In a dark place, things look bad,
and we don't ever see the light.
The answer is we must go on,
and not give up the fight!
