    Here I stand in the darkness, Praying for the strength to carry on. Fear shakes me to the core, Rockin' me back and forth. Like a boat upon the ocean. Oh how I want to give up, To fall down and let the hopelessness- take over from all sides. I want to bow my head in defeat, And forget about the dreams I had. Prayer seeps through my lips, To a Father I'd never known- but had been told about. I cry out to Him, To save me, to fill me. And in the midst of that moment, The darkness had disappeared. Enough was this feeling of gloom, But now was this strength that was ever so strong. It overwhelmed me, and consumed me, It brought me to my feet. And a song sprung from my mouth, In a Glorious Praise to an Almighty King, For this hope was my lead.

This piece was something a tad new to me, because it's an acrostic, which will be explained in the group's contest journal [link]

Courage, Compassion, Love.
