Thank you, Anni. Maybe I'm a masochist because I do like making things difficult for myself. I considered rhyming each line as well, but that was a bridge too far. Perhaps next time...
Mostly dead is slightly alive
and where there’s life, there’s hope,
even when we fail to thrive
toward recovery we grope,
spirit refusing to lie down,
the slightest spark can blaze again,
in deepest dark the light may drown
but ahead we sense the dawn.
Line count: 8
