Reach

An outstretched hand. A savior in need.

Reach

 

I reach for the truth

that will set me free

from this world of misery.

I reach.

 

I reach for a strong hand

that was pierced for my sake,

so I could live for eternity.

I reach.

 

I reach for the God promised

gift that few know

and never will have.

I reach.

 

I reach for the Son of God.

I reach.

I really like this, Darkfairy. It's written with a lot of emotion and faith. Keep on reaching! :) Don't ever stop.
I agree with Reaper on the "I reach." line on the third stanza. You repeat it and there is no need. But, you are the writer, so if you feel it belongs there. Then keep it. Either way it is a beautiful piece.

A true thought and a true belief, beautifully and gently put.

Sometimes the poet knows what's best for his/her writing because of personal thoughts and feelings.

Thank you for sharing.

really great, df :)
the imagery was like, super vivid bc i could totally imagine a person in their final hours reaching for the sky and heaven and stuff. the repetitive-ness of the line 'i reach' is nice, i like it. even though repetitive-ness can sometimes be annoying, it really works for this poem :)
good write, df :D keep it upp.

Very nice Darkfairy.
The only thing i could change is the line 'i reach' at the end of the first three Stanza's. Its just bother's me.
Otherwise well done and Welcome to writer's cafe!
