Rest Poem by Haley Akin

Rest

Rating: 5.0


I have drifted on a lake of sorrow,
unwilling to take that deep dive in.
I may float here just a little longer,
and put my feet just slightly in....

I will ponder how that depth will feel,
then pull my knees up to my chest.
Maybe someday I will take that dive,
but for now... I will just... rest.

You know, your husband may be biased, but he's right, you can write well. Another ten.

Simple rythmic verse, testing lifes water before going in over your head. Keep writing!
