Climbing To The Height Of My Desire For You

Climbing To The Height Of My Desire For You

A Poem by Deborah Leah Krempa

Climbing to the height of my desire for you

 

Climbing to the height of my desire for you I shall need

To find my way out of this horrid place

The stairway that I must climb is such a long way up

Height of which I seem to fall back one step forward two steps back

Of this place I am at I have hit rock bottom

My life is at stake and I

Desire for so much more than this

For to be able to come out of this dark cold celler and to find my way to

You as you are the only glimmer of light in my darkest hour

The hope is strong in this piece, no matter how much we have to face and it keeps trying to keep us back down we keep the hope alive. This is a great write.

Often people don't know how to review poems with a darker feel to them. Perhaps due to them cutting too close to emotions held depth within. I think that is what gives them strength by forcing the reader to think. In you work here there is little room for doubt about the state of mind you present. It is dark but yet the desire for something more from life still comes through. You have crafted an entire story in a few lines.

Well done.

Harsh reality here. Well imaged and stated!

This sounds like another variation of "the blues." Crying out from a depressed place of saddness.

Oh wow, that is got to be one of the hardest pieces read
to feel the rock bottom and compare it in the way
the one that left you, the concrete stairs has really set the mood
and tone of your great written piece, I thought you did a rather
magnificent job in writing this with emotions flowing through
Excellent write!!
