I had a dream that I fell.
I grabbed for a plant
and tumbled down
a large gaping hole
clutching at loose vines
screaming your name.
I don’t know if you rescued me.
You were there when I fell
but then I woke up
sweating
trying to find the meaning
or the no meaning in the dream.
Would you get a rope
and pull me up?
Would you do what you could
to help?
Or
would you walk away
pretending that you
couldn’t see or hear me?
Is it worth screaming your name?
or should I pull myself up?
Strong and Independent.
Maybe dreams are just dreams.
But there is a small
part of me that wonders
if the safety of your silent world
is all you need
and
that pretending to neither see or hear me
has nothing to do with me
and everything to do with you!
Thank you for reading my books: If I Could Tell You How It Feels, and Untangled, A Story of Resilience, Courage, and Triumph

This poem is how I feel about anxiety. It’s like falling down a gaping hole and you don’t know who’s gonna catch you at the bottom. Also how there is always that one person. I truly loved this!

This poem reminds me that God steps in when we need God. Sometimes, God supports us in obvious ways, but often, God supports us emotionally so we can help ourselves.

It does speak so much more about the other person. It’s hard sometimes to come to terms that some people are not able or willing to see when someone is in pain. Some, even make the struggle worse, becoming defensive in their own pain. We should turn more towards each other, instead of away. Thanks for sharing!!
