the snowball effect

Poem Commentary

one little mistake and my whole world is turned upside down, I gave it my best, I did all I could and the sky is still falling, so Lord I give the battle to you. I can't stand to fall without you lift this load or take me home. I would rather die and lift the burden I have placed on others than to live with the agonizing pain. but know I will not take my life but live what time is given, be it a life of joy or be it that my path be that of thy servant Job.

the snowball effect

at once I am standing in a land of night, the stars are falling on a blanket
of white.
the wind is howling like a pack of wild wolves
my heart is pounding like a thousand hoofs

the wind pushes harder the cold creeps with in stripping my flesh to the bone
and cutting in
the ice in small pealts drown out my screams as the fear grips my heart and begins to tear at the seems.

I dropp to my knees my head in my hands, struggling for breath but I know its the end.
the world starts to spin, I fall to the ground. my stomach starts pitching and churnin with in. my body quakes with fever I pour out a cold sweat that leaves my skin brittle and chaps my dry lips.

my teeth are clinched in the agonised pain, my voice is straining as I scream in sheer pain.
I'm crippled by silence I'm drowned out by white, as I struggle and struggle, and fight for my life

then it starts to tumble, the sky to the ground, echoing with loud rumbles, but no shether can be found. so I lay and I wither through the cold lonely night
and long for the warmth or the dawns glorieous light.

 I've caused so much pain, so how shall I be saved, but Lord I pray the
let me fall to my grave. if it would heal there burdens and strife, their wounds and there sickness and prolong their life.

its so crazy to think that one little mistake could erroupt with such mass and build to the brink ever so fast. I have to wonder if there be so defect, that created the cause for the snowball effect.
