Comment from Patty Mazzurco
Your poem beautifully captures the struggle and triumph of overcoming a deep personal challenge. The imagery of slipping and climbing a muddy slope effectively conveys the intense emotions of feeling stuck and then finding the strength to rise above it. I appreciate the raw honesty in describing the battle with darkness and the realization of inner strength. The transition from despair to empowerment is both powerful and inspiring. Your closing lines, with their emphasis on self-discovery and renewed belief in dreams, offer a hopeful and uplifting message. Overall, it's a poignant reflection on resilience and personal growth.

It's good to see that your self confidence and self belief have returned, the negative forces of the world can be arrayed before us, always trying keep us confined to that subdued and heavily fettered box, beautifully and confidently written, well done, blessings Roy

What an inspiring poem for your First Milestone post and it's a very nice entry for the Rhyming Poetry Competition. Even though the lines don't have a set meter, they still have a pleasing rhythm that flows easily. I enjoyed it very much! Welcome and Best wishes!

Thank you, I have always found having a set meter to be a little constricting I just write it as it flows out of my mind lol

Dreams are very important to our minds, and it's where hope can find a way into our hearts. Please check this line: I (It) was darkness like I've known. What a wonderfully written poem. Good luck in the contest! Have a great day, and God bless.
