This reminds me of how I feel into a deep depression and lost my way in life. Then I found GOD and found my light once again and my purpose which lead me up here. Maybe I was meant to see this. Thank you this touched me deeply. Good luck on your entry.

Keeping that hope when you're lost is so difficult to do but when the light comes. I love the form. What a wonderfully written poem. Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day, and God bless.

This poem shows that light always overcomes darkness. God gives us courage to face anything. I like where you said: I lead this light in trusted hands. Poem is well written. Very good job

An excellent entry for the Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend poetry contest. The criteria was met in the form of a lovely diamond. I liked how the poem began using the word darkness in the second line and ended using the word light in the second to last line. In between the poem told of the poet's journey from darness to light. Well-written. Good luck in the contest.

I can picture the dark days in this poem. Many of us have had them. I know I have and thank God my believeth in the man above has helped me many times. Were you speaking about a loved one in this poem? You don't have to answer this question.

Very well done. It would take quite a bit of work to get your lines to make the diamond shape and make sense. Well done. All the best in the competition. Take care and have a wonderful day.

I thought your poem beautifully captures going from darkness to faith and hope. I love the progression in your writing from feeling lost and alone to finding strength in belief. I loved the message. And the creative diamond approach added to the message. Great job!

Beautifully written. Liked the running scared, stumbling and spiraling without direction imagery. Falling into hope and faith. Thanks for sharing. Esther

Beautifully presented as a perfect diamond, your verse evolves from a sensation of dark despair to a path leading you into the light and a source of hope. Well done for capturing your journey so skilfully into this format. Your presentation excellently complements the sentiments. Good luck! Debbie
