If Stranded Alone...

April 12, 2016

A deep thing to think about:

what can't I live without?

I don't know where I'd be without hope

It got me through dark times, it was a rope

When stuck in a deep hole, I would look to find

hope dangling down, inviting me to climb.

If stranded all alone, I would need something to hold

And with the help of hope, agony would be slowed.

Something wrong with this poem?
