(FOR WEEPING WILLOW)

Inch by inch,
I reached the steep end
Of the ravine,
Struggling not to fall,
But each time, I almost did...
Remembering,
How I walked past my deadlines
With fear day after day.
Impatience gnawed on me
For my efforts were in vain
There’s this cloak,
So great, it dwarfs me
It suffocates me.
I need air, I need space,
A shaft of light maybe,
To lead me to a way out.

MY EMOTIONS by Weeping willow reminded me of olden times.  This is a short poem I wrote  from those days, it is not much, it is a reminder of how life had been a long time ago.
