Photo-Fiction #82 – I need the light

pictures-to-prompt-creative-writing-1-638

I’m falling on the edge of the abyss
I’m muddled but don’t want to give it a miss
I do not lead a holy life and I feel guilty
I come to you and need your advice badly
My flesh is weak and I’m drifting away
I acted like a fool and I was led astray
It was a pretty tame affair but still hidden
What was done couldn’t be undone
A secret so to speak in the mist of tides
I wish I could just take them in strides
I know this too will pass but I need the light
Light at the end of the tunnel for my plight

For: Photo-Fiction #82, nineteenth day of NaPoWriMo
