Losing grip in the pits of despair
No stability with nothing to grasp.
Time elapses as he stares me down,
Vengeance running cold through his veins.
Danger emits the better of two options for me:
Bravery from the very saviour who
Comes bearing comfort for my soul.
Crying in the dark for the one I needed
Before realising, I open my eyes to him.
Detrimental images slowly make way for
Visions of a legitimate future, protected.
Time elapses in the arms of an angel and
Nausea feels a whole lot like
Love

#2 - Being the protected
There's a secret in this. I wonder if anyone will find it heehee.
And I tried to add a personal spin on the end so it didn't come across corny. Lol. I'm so in love
PS: The two "he's" are different people.

The last line is amazing. How we sometimes confuse emotions, only later to truly understand the value. I'm not sure what the secret may be, but I think it was an intriguing poem to read.

I think I saw part of the personal spin, and though tit was quite cute. I lovely write and curious as to why this hasn't placed yet. good luck

A wonderful little write. I'm thinking about the secret, think I may have guessed with these lines...
Nausea feels a whole lot like

In one of my classes a teacher said you know when you've written a great poem when someone says 'Wow', well Woooowwwww!
This causes a lovely, glowy feeling and conveys hope. I love positive poems and this can defo be classed as that. Your grammer and word use is very good too!
Peace Georgia

I've had a few people say that a few times! lol. I'm glad I conveyed the hope, because that's definitely what I feel these days. As much as I'm wary of change, I don't half mind this. And thank you for the comment about grammar
I tried hard this time.

I recognize the difference dear. This was just lovely. The way you captured the essence of the picture was just magnificent. I especially love the fact that you included the picture.
I think this was a wonderful entry... the only thing I must suggest isn't even related to the poem... change the background! YUCK! No GO! 
Other than that brilliant! Thank you for entering and good luck.

LOL! Fair enough for the background. Black seems a more neutral colour Thanks so much!
