Walking on the cold winter sand, taking every wave in her stride
She stopped to look around, she checked her watch for time..
she was in no hurry, she had no place to go
nothing made any sense, it didn't matter anymore.
Life had come a full circle, she knew she had failed
She felt let down, she wanted it all to go away
She looked up, hurled curses at the sky..
not knowing what had gone wrong..all she did was cry.
Sitting on a solitary rock, with no one by her side,
she felt a shiver run through her, images kept coming back to her mind.
she looked upto God, questioning him everytime,
what reason did he have, to just let her life go wasted by..
The sun was setting, the sky turning into an orange shade
She gazed, her eyes shone, as her tears began to fade.
Her mind felt lighter, heart began to soar
thinking, wondering she got up & strolled the shore..
Taking in every sight of bliss around, her heart skipped a beat
God whispered.. i give you the best gift, now go out there and live some more
she rubbed her hands and then her face, with a heavy sigh
& as she prepared for the day ahead, gave God her bravest smile.
OMG! its so beautiful! wow.. its lovely!
ReplyDeleteOur oldest poems are sometimes our best. This is heartfelt, and I'm happy that her bravest smile was there when she most needed it.
