Finally over!

So I had my senior art show's reception last night. I almost had a nervous breakdown a few hours before it started. I was frantically fixing food and hoping that I wouldn't burn something or drop something on the floor, etc. All the while looking at the clock and watching my time slip away! Very nerve wracking! lol But I got it all done, and I was so excited when I saw people I knew walking in the door. I didn't expect some of them to come and it made me happy, also amazingly enough my family showed up before the show ended!!! :) It ended up being so fun, but it is really just a relief to be done with it! I finished the class before Spring Break!

The pit

Buried deep in a pit of sin.
Barely breathing, trapped within
Stifled screams for help, I cry
No escape, death's gleaming eye
Frantic digging, knuckles bleeding.
Tears, I whimper, growing dimmer.
Only moments left, my final cry for help.
A flicker of light, it hurts my eyes
A hand reaches out, He heard my cries.
I pull away, I know my doubt.
Trust is gone, "to late" I shout
But still persistent he grabs my hand.
And gently lifts me to solid land
Softly he whispers in my ear
Loving words, sweet and clear:
"It's not to late when hope is gone.
When you are weak I'll make you strong."
