Anxiety
Unmeasured
Confrontation
Unexpected 
Problems and
Uneven ground
Planted with
Fruitless endeavors
What can happen next?
Procrastinate
Filled up plates
Running as fast as I can
And still not enough
Plugging holes in the dike
Unending endings
Flipping over and continuing
noitcerid rehto eht nI

Shifting sands
With nowhere to stand
And swirling possibilities
Bound up in futilities

Reaching for stability
Finding none - for long

What is needed
To get over the 
Insurmountable?

What is needed
To put one foot
Before the other?

What is needed 
To keep on keeping on?

And keep me from
Floating away?

In a word
An anchor
A connection
To that other land

That will tether me
To the great beyond

For the anchor
Of which I speak
Runs from earth
To Heaven above

The thread of my faith
A chain, the link
To my Hope.
