Question

How is the poem similar to the passage?

Answer 1

Passage 1
Back to the Future

Heath had come clean. The way of life he had led until now couldn't satisfy him. The day he decided to mend his mistakes was the day his mother said she still loved him. Heath knew, no doubt, that his family was waiting for him to turn around. Even in the darkest hours of the disappearance, Heath had not lost his faith in his family. Then, he had lost faith in himself and had walked out in anger. Heath had become lonely for the love that he had found smothering. After nights on the footpath, Heath knew what it took for his father to put a roof over his head. Suddenly, it all made sense. Heath was himself again. He felt newer and surer of himself like never before.

Passage 2
Not Drowning, but Waving

The day I almost drowned had saved my life.
I saw the world inside the waters' sphere.
Submerged I thought that I had lost it all,
and things had ended after one fateful fall.
But then, two hands reached for my shaky limbs.
I was pulled up; I made it to the shore.
I thank my life, more than I thanked before.
