Lifeline Into The Future Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Finding a silence touching deeply, bringing me to my knees
as I pray desperately for a way to continue going on.

Having faith, holding onto it religiously, tightly, like
a lifeline into the future that is filled with the out-
comes that I may not care to be involved in.

However, moving forward without fear or doubts, otherwise,
I will fall by the wayside and no longer have an existence
to hold onto in this life on earth.

A particular and intense aspect of being alive has such
depth and meaning that keeps me always wondering and very
curious.

Wanting to know everything I can about all corners and
angles of this temporary abode here on earth.
