My First Poem - Untitled

Struggling to keep myself upright...
Endeavoring, so the world can hear my plight..
Cognizant that the world can be harsh..
I try to keep my head in the fight..
And the darkness abates..
Leaving me empty inside..
I shudder, and keep my veneer aside..
A hand holds me steady, waning the fright..
Smiling beatifically, she teaches how to survive..
Beguiling yet perplexing is her nature..
For she is the one who brings the tide..
Amidst which I struggle to keep myself upright.
