Dani_is_not_ok in Poetry & Free Verse

I was once lost, wandering the earth aimlessly and reaching for a hand to hold.

A blindfold covered my eyes, my mouth was sewn shut, forbiding all my cries.

I stumbled alone through the forest, catching myself every time I should fall.

Creeping closer and closer to a pit, I was destined to fall.

And I did just that. I lost my footing and plummeted.

Down and down I fell, begging God to have mercy.

What I didn’t know, was, there you were waiting.

You waited for me to come to view,

And you caught me, held me tight,

And eventually, whispered, I’ve got you.

It was true, you did.

You had me there,

Whispering the words,

I love

You.
