Realization

[metalfan91]

Today
As I woke up in the dark
Alone
I cried out for guidance
As my worries and fears overshadowed my very well-being
I was at a crossroads
With no sense of direction

Desperate for a path
The ground I was once standing on had become damp
I made the first step
And stumbled

I fell to my hands and knees
And froze
As there was nothing but emptiness in front of me
But everything behind

I felt both my hands become held by others
As I was brought to my feet
There was a light shining from behind
The silhouettes beside me
Were now gone from sight

Their presence
However
Is everlasting

I agree with a previous comment, this could pack more emotion if it was a bit more concise. This could use some trimming, you definitely have something here you can work with. There are extremely short lines followed by very long ones which I think can be condensed as they are rather awkward. I also think you could start out stronger than saying "Today." Along the lines of, but not exactly:

I awaken
In the pitch-black dark
Alone
I cry out for guidance
=======================

I think this will pack more punch if you use the present tense. A good technique I like to use, if you haven't, is writing out the poem and rearranging the stanzas. Even if it doesn't make sense, it helps with perspective and you could see which stanzas are stronger in which place.

Hope this helps.
