Emily Dickinson style poem. Noncontest poem.
I held my breath — as Darkness crept —
A fragile Thread — of Light —
In Shadows deep — where Whispers dwell —
I clasped — with all my Might —
The Moments danced — yet still I stay —
In Twilight’s Arms — the Heartbeats thrum —
A battle — Night to Day —
With every Pulse — the Echoes call —
For Life — a precious Bloom —
I cling — and will not leave —
Though Death may linger — at the Gate —
I stand — with fervent Heart —
In every struggle — I find my Grace —
A Masterpiece — my Art —
