Rise – A Quadrille

Posted byChristine BoltonPosted inBlog, QuadrilleTags:, , , 
Unable to rise above
feelings of despair
Dragging me down
on this road to nowhere  
Strength and bravery
failing me once more
eyes blinded
as I crawl on the floor 
Help me please
as you are wise
Lift me up
So, I may rise

I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose. Thanks for checking it out. Christine

    2. A sincere and desperate plea. The last lines are hopeful…with so many people in this world, you would think there should be enough help for all of us.
