Faith

A leap of faith.

Standing on the ledge.

Fear pumping through his veins.

His mind losing its edge.

With no one to blame.

When hate had run dry.

Leaving only his lies.

And with his last breath.

He took his leap of faith.

This is crazy, this allows everyone to make their own mental imagination of what is actually happening or what actually happened to a person who feels this way. Anybody can feel worn out about something that has been bothering them. You feel as you are going insane and there isn't any other way out. Please write more! I'm excited to see with what you come up with next. Feel free to send me a read request with you new work id love to review it.

Thank you! I'm glad you appreciate the vagueness of the situation, I wanted the reader to project their own problems onto the character. I really appreciate your review and your support! I'll make sure to take you up on your offer!

Fox hole Christians is a term and you may be writing of the same. Fear does act as a conversion tool in the religious world. When alone and facing our fear, we find often there is only one place to turn. Well done.

Honestly, I've never heard of the term until you mentioned it but looking into it...its actually really interesting(and pretty accurate), and applies pretty well to the situation. Thanks for reading!

Your not hearing is not surprising. Fox holes are not what they were in WWI and WWII. Take care.

[Drone17]

True, take care as well!

A nice powerful piece. You have successfully stripped the narrative back to basics and tis gives it a nice raw feel.

Well done

Thank you! I prefer writing longer and more detailed poems but I wanted to writing something simpler and shorter. Thanks for reading!
