I have lost traction to my path I am slipping and sliding on it Barely able to keep in place Difficult to stay the way It takes more effort to go forward Than to allow myself to fall out of it The fear of staying behind Falling into the darkness And losing site of the Light Doesn't allow for me to stay the path I must compose myself Learn to trust the slow and steady Simple and easy Cautious and attentive way Keeps me safe in the path Regardless of mud and water Darkness and fear That comes from time to time. - Ruptes

Great poem! I love the strength and power of the first two opening lines, setting the poem up for a great ride.
